I would recommend this company in all areas of care provided for both my mother and father-in-law. The carers always acted with kindness, compassion and understanding towards them both, sometimes under difficult circumstances. We had good communication with the management on dealing with and planning for our parent's care, are always friendly and kind but professional. Would highly recommend this care company.
Thank you so much for the positive feedback, Julie; we will pass this on to the team. It was a pleasure working with you and your parents.
Always so accommodating to our requests for my grandmother's care. Always respond to emails, phone calls and messages quickly. Very flexible when we have needed to change times and days of care. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your kind words, and thank you for taking the time to leave such a positive review, Anna.
Thank you very much for the care that Safe and Sound gave to our mum for six months prior to her needing to move permanently into a care home. Carers were very kind to Mum and increased the level of support as Mum's health naturally declined due to old age. The managers were responsive when we had problems with Mum's increasingly ill health. They suggested options and put these in place.
Thanks for your kind words. I'm glad we were able to keep mum home for as long as possible.
I am very satisfied with the overall service.
We are very happy that you are satisfied with our service. Thanks for the review.

Very pleased with my carers.
Thanks for taking the time to leave a review.
I am very happy with all that they do.
Its a delight to hear that you are happy with our service. Thanks for taking the time to leave a review.
They communicate with me in a timely fashion when/if required, and there is good support from the office-based staff.
The provision of regular staff is great, and I am able to let Mum know who will be visiting (which she likes).
I would happily recommend them to anyone. A big thank you to you all.
We are ever so grateful for your kind words, Michelle. Thank you for taking the time to share your review.
Safe and Sound have cared for my mother for several months now. The carers are just that, so caring, gentle and friendly; they have almost become like part of the family. They turn up at the time expected (as best anyone can with traffic and other impediments) but ring if delayed more than 30-mins. Their visits are at approx the same time daily so life can be planned and the same carers are regular too, a bonus after previous companies. The carers communicate with the family clearly and concisely, so any issues are dealt with quickly and efficiently. The office staff are accommodating and helpful whenever I've needed to contact them, even if out of office hours. Overall, can only praise this company and all their staff, look forward to an ongoing long-lasting relationship with my mum.
Thank you for your positive words and for taking the time to leave a review. I am happy that we are able to have a positive impact on you and your mother and look forward to future dealings with you. I will ensure that the great feedback is given to the carers and also, the team in the office.
When you offer such a good service that keeps people in their own homes and independent, that's brilliant.
Staff are always friendly and always check if anything else needs doing before they leave.
The care notes written are also very accurate and detailed for me to see how the visit day is going.
So a big thank you to you and your team.
It's also really good that I can let my friend know the name of the carer for the next visit and the approximate time of the visit.
Staff always read any notes I leave and also leave me a reply.
We appreciate your support in working alongside us and also the kind words given. We will pass this on to our carers. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
My mum and dad are always telling me they are much happier since we changed their care company in June this year. I have noticed that too on my visits to see them. Their care team and the managers are lovely, professional, attentive, kind, friendly and very supportive to us as a family.
This is exactly why we do what we do! So pleased that we have made a positive impact on your parent's development. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Safe and Sound are very good with all my mother's care, from the carers to the management staff, always accommodating to her needs and always willing to help when they can. They are always willing to help if there is anything else that needs to be added to the list of jobs that Mum needs help with.
Thank you for leaving such a positive review, Julie. It's a pleasure working with you and your mother. Thanks for your support.
My daughter is provided support by Safe and Sound assisting her with household tasks. We have been impressed with the organisation both for its office staff and carers. The office team members are quick to answer the phone, always friendly and polite and find solutions. With the supply of carers in England being difficult to keep up with demand for, the team goes out of its way to ensure cover is available and is always recruiting. The carers are clearly well-vetted because every one of them has been excellent. We note too that there are only a small number of carers visiting, so there isn't the need to keep explaining what to do. The service my daughter receives is exemplary. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this glowing review. We are really happy to see that you are pleased with the support we are providing your daughter. Thanks for taking the time to leave a review.
The contact app is most useful and saves everyone time, however, if I need to contact the office, this has worked well, and I usually get a prompt response.
We are happy to see that you are pleased with the care we are providing your mother. We strive to ensure our customer service experience is at a high level, so it's nice to see you are a recipient of this. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
Also, visits are very consistent and mostly the same regular carers, which is great for old people, especially caring towards my mum, who has Alzheimer's. What a great team.
Thank you so much for the kind words, and thanks for taking the time to leave a review.
I'm very impressed with the standard and the continuity of the carers that my Mum have visit her. Mum has her regular carers and if there are any changes then we are both notified. From the first point of contact, Safe and Sound have been so kind and understanding regarding our situation and I would happily recommend them to anyone.
