I can highly recommend Guardian Angel Carers - Berkshire & South Oxfordshire
for home care. The whole experience was very reassuring from the initial home visit, the very thorough preparation and paperwork up to meeting the carer herself. Lovely people who gave my mother the best level of care.

I have just started to use Guardian Angel Carers for support and help with my mum, the team are amazing, so attentive, supportive and have a lovely professional relationship with my mum. The three ladies we have daily to help and support my mum make her laugh, jolly her along when she is having a slightly
off day and always bring a smile to her face. The team in the office made the whole process of completing the paperwork to introducing themselves to my mum and talking through all the support packages so easy, nothing was too much trouble.

Thank you for stepping in whilst our normal carer took annual leave. You took time and care to understand my father-in-law's needs and routines. A particular member of staff was kind and patient and ensured disruption was kept to an absolute minimum. Would definitely recommend it.

We couldn't have asked for a better care company to look after our grandparents. From the first assessment, they made my grandparents feel at ease about having carers coming into their home. Everybody was always on time, friendly and they could not do enough for my grandparents. As a family member,
we were relieved and thankful to have such professional, supportive and caring people looking after our loved ones.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Guardian Angel Carers supported us while my father was in hospital for a long period, making sure that our mother was ok. My mother passed away during that time and my father and the family were so impressed with their compassion that he insisted that when he came home eventually that they would be
there for him. They provided an outstanding service tailored to his personal needs. What was impressive was their attention and care. They were absolutely up for anything and did everything required to a super professional level. They were never fazed by the task. They were always prompt and went over and above. They kept the family up to date, advising on my father’s condition on a regular basis. I can’t thank them enough for the work they did which they did so well and always with a smile.
Reply from Charlotte Clark, Registered Manager at Guardian Angel Carers - Berkshire & South Oxfordshire

My mother has received fantastic care so far from Guardian Angels. Nothing is too much trouble, they are very experienced and I feel my mother is in very safe hands.
The communication is great, I always know what has been achieved on their visit as I receive a daily report. They always leave the house
clean and tidy which is an added bonus!

We really couldn't fault the care my grandad received from Guardian Angel Carers. The management was fantastic as were all the carers my grandad had, he loved seeing the office manager and in his own words said she was A-star. Nothing was ever too much and the communication was second to none. Would
recommend Guardian Angel Carers to anyone needing home care. Thank you ever so much for the time spent caring for Grandad.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Guardian Angel Carers first stepped in when my mum needed a bit of extra help with personal care, housework and mobility and then stepped up to four calls a day after a hospital admission. The carers are all kind and friendly, always striving to get the right balance between helping and supporting independence.
Communication and feedback with me were always timely and the manager was supportive in problem-solving and making suggestions to improve things for Mum. The whole team was flexible and responsive to the changing situation. I highly recommend the service and thank all the team for their kindness and care.

We needed a new care company urgently and Guardian Angel Carers Reading stepped in very quickly. We have found them very good. Help and assistance is first class, absolutely takes the strain off of the family shoulders. Two staff members in particular are both very conscientious, very smart and safety

I cannot thank Guardian Angels enough for all the care and support they have given my father and myself too.
They offer a great service which is reliable, caring, friendly and responsive to any changes that occur. They communicate immediately if there are any problems or concerns and are proactive
in finding a solution.
The carers are all very caring, friendly and treat my father with dignity. The online dashboard is so useful and easy to use, plus you can always get hold of someone when you call the office and they are so helpful.
I highly recommend Guardian Angels.
