The care and compassion shown to my father Tom, who has dementia, has been outstanding. Every member of the team has treated him with dignity, patience and genuine kindness, making a real difference to his life and ours as a family. The carers were reliable, professional and always take the time to ensure he felt safe, comfortable and respected. They all understand the challenges that come with dementia and approach every situation with empathy and reassurance. Knowing that my Father was in such caring and capable hands gave us the real peice of mind. I can't thank the team enough for their dedication and support.
I would highly recommend their service to anyone looking for home carers.

Thank you for your review, looking after Tom was a privilege for all staff.

My family contacted Family at heart Homecare when I came out of hospital after a total knee replacement and they were able to fit us in straight away. I was in a great deal of pain but they were wonderful, very patient and caring. They not only took care of me but also cared for my husband who is in Paliative care in our home. They could not do enough for us and we couldn't have managed without them. We had three of the team on different days and they are all in the medical profession, a Paramidic, a nurse and a midwife and their experience and expertise could not be faulted.
I would unconditionally recommend them to anyone needing care in their home and we thank all the team for their help in a very painful and difficult time.

Me and my family are very grateful and happy with the care received, we found them fast to respond, reliable and trustworthy. my nan was telling me how they went above and beyond for their care needs and can't thank them enough.

Thank you so much for helping my family and we will definitely use their care services again if needed. If your looking for care i highly recommend these.

I've been working with this company for a couple of months, and they treat me with kindness and understanding with patience and respect. They have been helping me with managing my condition while also getting more independence. It's run by a family, so it feels like family/friends. They help with appointments and medical help, cleaning, cooking and shopping, even when I'm in too much pain going for me, including picking up prescriptions. They're also always on time or early for the job.

They have been absolutely amazing. They are proactive and a pleasure to have around. They are open to helping in any way they can. They are respectful of my child's independence and want to be autonomous as a young woman, dealing with them directly. We have had a few carer agencies and many varying experiences but I can honestly say these are one of the best and the quickest to just come in and take over care without issue and I felt comfortable straight away in being able to take respite without worrying.

I co-founded Family at Heart Home Care in 2025, inspired by my passion for delivering high-quality, compassionate, and person-centred care. I am a registered paramedic with extensive healthcare experience, having worked across emergency, hospital, and community settings. This background has given me a strong clinical foundation, as well as a deep understanding of the unique needs of elderly and vulnerable people.
What drives me is the belief that care should always be about more than just medical support — it should be about dignity, respect, and bringing comfort to both clients and their families.
Outside of my professional role, I enjoy spending time with my own family, and I carry those same values of love, support, and trust into the care I provide through Family at Heart.

I co-founded Family at Heart Home Care in 2025, bringing with me over nine years of experience as a registered nurse. Throughout my career, I have worked in a variety of healthcare settings, supporting people with complex needs and ensuring they always receive safe, high-quality care.
I am passionate about delivering care that goes beyond clinical needs — for me, it’s about treating every individual with empathy, dignity, and respect, and making sure they feel truly valued.
Outside of my professional role, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I believe those same values of compassion, trust, and support are at the very heart of Family at Heart, and they guide everything I do.
