Over all time Helping Hands Home Care (Dartford) has 20 reviews.
During the months that the carers from Helping Hands came to help mum we were impressed by their compassion, reliability and knowledge of the particular care needs of mum. In fact we learned quite a bit ourselves about caring for an elderly person. Consequently mum was very pleased to have them visit and looked on them as friends.
As mum's care needs progressed we found Helping Hands very adaptable to taking on more care issues, even taking mum's little dog for a quick walk. So we would thoroughly recommend Helping Hands Dartford to anyone seeking peace of mind regarding care for their loved one.

Good afternoon,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we really do appreciate it. It is wonderful to hear how reassured you and your sisters felt when choosing Helping Hands Dartford to support your mother, and that Adele's caring and knowledgeable approach helped you feel at ease...
Helping Hands Dartford run by Adele & her Team have been invaluable in caring for my Mum in her own home.
Without their ongoing support & experience we would have had to find alternative accommodation & possibly a Care Home for my Mum.
The quality of care my Mum receives is second to none with her being shown kindness & companionship.
We can highly recommend Helping Hands Dartford. Thank you to Adele & her Team
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we really do appreciate it.
We are delighted to hear that Adele and her team have been invaluable in supporting your Mum and helping her remain comfortably in her own home. It is wonderful to know that the kindness,...
I am very pleased with the service that my sister is receiving from the Dartford branch of Helping Hands. I am particularly impressed with the way in which they provide and accommodate for the needs of the client and also take a personal interest in the care they think the client needs, which the client themselves may well have not thought about. Leza and Adele's attitudes are both of a caring nature and concern for the client, as well as being very professional and respectful to all concerned.
I would most certainly recommend Helping Hands to anyone in need of home carers, as the Company is very well organised and efficiently run.
Thank you very much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review. We are delighted to hear that your sister is receiving excellent support from our Dartford branch. It is wonderful to know that the team are not only meeting her needs, but also taking the time to understand...
Helping hands have been the greatest support for both my mother and father in law but also to the whole family. The staff have always been caring and supportive. Adele went above and beyond to fully understand the family set up and situation to help my father in law maintain his independence and dignity whilst also making sure the families care concerns were supported.
It is wonderful to know that our staff have consistently been...
Helping hands are amazing. Adele is very helpful and was very accommodating of my mum's needs. The carers were superb and always courteous to my mum. They couldn't do enough for her at all times. We were very grateful for their support.
We are delighted to hear that you have found our service to be so supportive and that Adele has been particularly helpful and accommodating of your mothers needs. It is also wonderful to know that the carers have...
My mum needed the help of carers after she had a fall in the garden.The jobs the carers provided help with were making meals, washing up , hair washing and any other assistance my mum needed while they were there. My mum found all the carers polite, caring and helpful, and we would recommend Helping Hands to anyone looking for carers help.
Good Afternoon Ian. Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us. We are very grateful. We are delighted to hear that our carers were able to support your mum after her fall and provide the help she needed with daily tasks. It's wonderful to know they were polite, caring, and helpful...

It is also great to hear that the team have all been kind and caring and you feel that the service is well organised.
We will be sure...
A big thankyou to helping hands Adele and all carers for the care given to my mother over the past few years. The care was always professional and loving. Maybe not the cheapest available but worth the extra. Myself and family would highly recommend their services.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we really do appreciate it.
We are pleased to hear that the care Adele and the carers are providing for your Mother over the past few years have always been professional and loving and you would highly recommend us even.
The team will...
It was a simple process to agree the level and frequency of support needed. While dad seemed to have one or two favourite carers, all of those supporting him were sympathetic to his ever changing needs, and went beyond the expected level of support as our father's situation worsened.
I would definitely recommend Helping Hands to others and the only reason that I haven't given 5 stars is due to the difficulty trying to access the daily updates on the App. But that wasn't for the want of trying on Helping Hands part.
Well done and thank you to the manager and the Dartford team.

Thank you so much for your prompt and continued help in providing my father with support following a recent fall. The on call team and local branch manager responded promptly and swiftly in putting into place a plan to support him and also continue to arrange on going support in these recent weeks, re arranging the same carer val and another carer to support. Thank you so much very appreciated.
The last 4 days of care that my husband had with you were all friendly helpful and caring. They also helped me through a very difficult time. I had to increase the hours and it was done speedly and without any fuss.
Only a recent user of Helping Hands for my mum and so far we are very pleased with the choice of carers the company has provided. So far this was a good family choice and hopefully, it will continue. We would recommend their services.
All the staff in the office have always been there to discuss any issues that arise, I have always been informed immediately when any issues have arisen relating to my mothers care and all the carers have been so kind and caring with my mother. I would also like to make a special mention to my mothers main and regular carer, she has been brilliant with my mother and even highlighted issues that we were unaware of with my mothers health that we have been able to progress with the GP and arrange for ongoing treatment.
I cannot recommend Helping Hands Dartford highly enough and we would happily use them again if the situation arose.
Helping Hands came to my rescue and my carers were excellent.
The only problem was that they could only come at 7am - 7:30 on Sundays. I found it a long day but understand you are short of carers.
I would recommend Helping Hands to anyone needing care.
All recent carers I have had have been like friends and I look forward to seeing them.
We are very sad to have lost some outstanding carers this year!
This year, I have trained many carers (new to the house). I have done the job for the carers, showering them/what needs to be done whilst paying for the carer to be there! I am interested in your response to this, as I feel it's not very fair.
She cleans and hoovers very well.
Always ask if she can do anything else.
The initial interview meeting was very lengthy in terms of the number of questions asked and this could not have happened if I had not been present to support my mum who has dementia. Having said that I am aware of the need for the collection of this information. The manager attending was professional and friendly. Mum's carer was bubbly, and friendly and established a good rapport with mum and cared for her very well indeed during my holiday break.
I would also like to say thank you for the updates we have received during lockdown.
We opted for three times a week, Mum needed help more on the domestic side than personally, also the company and seeing someone three times a week was important.
We have now been using Helping Hands for a month and Mum has been really pleased with the support she has been given. All the carers have been lovely and nothing is too much trouble! They will do a variety of tasks she cants manage, such as bed making, hoovering, etc. Importantly she told me recently how she looks forward to the visits and enjoys the company.
