Magic Helping Hands is a very helpful agency. They always take good care of my son and treat him very well. They attend their shifts on time, they are very clean and tidy. My son is a very fussy eater and they encourage him to eat well. If there are any concerns they report this to myself and their manager straight away. They have helped with all my sons' medication making sure we always have a good stock. I am happy with the service provided by Magic Helping Hands and I will highly recommend them.
I felt completely satisfied that mum and dad were being looked after.
They arrived on time and kept us informed of any issues involving dad's care needs.
Thanks.
