Overall Experience

A 5 star rating for Nicky and the team at Trusted Companions Midlothian. After my knee replacement operation, I was worried how I would cope during the first couple of weeks at home on my own whilst recovering and not able to fend for myself. I need not have worried. When I contacted Nicky, she reassured me that Trusted Companions would fit around whatever I needed. And that's exactly what they did. Not only was the care personal and attentive but the carers saw what needed to be done and were there to help me solve any problems. They took the time to check on my progress and to give me encouragement. I was lucky to have found such a dedicated team who were adaptable and flexible to my short term needs. Thank you.

Overall Experience

My mum has been with Nicky from the start and now along side her we have Rosie & honestly there is not enough words or thanks that can even come close to how much they are appreciated. Aside the fact I have no worries at all in regards to my mums care and I can relax and have peace of mind my mum has the freedom to chose what she does and even gets ideas from them doing new things and going new places and is thriving. Best and easiest decision I have made. To you both and everyone else behind the scenes thank you truly for everything

Overall Experience
Nicky and Rosie look after my dad so well. They have taken the time to get to know him and learn his little habits and work so well with him.
They are very adaptable to change and took over brilliantly when I went on a month long trip. Leaving dad was hard but they were so very good with him.
They often think of things I forget and they also pick up on medical things and prompt me to attend to these. Dad is so comfortable with both ladies and looks forward to them coming. For me that is the best bit, if dad is happy.

We are very happy with the Trusted Companion and so glad we found them.

Overall Experience
I was delighted to find The Trusted Companion; after many years of various problems with other providers, Nicky and her team were excellent - I just wish I had found them sooner!

I would thoroughly recommend this service provider - I just couldn't fault them - and they are well named, trust is an important element in this industry and I would trust them implicitly. Thank you for everything.

Review from Claire W (Mother of Client) published on 15 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I contacted the Trusted Companion when they were first expanding and I am so glad I did. From that first e mail I have been given quick replies, kept up to date on exactly what's happening, they have spent a lot of time, effort and endless patience getting to know my son and his likes/dislikes and what he enjoys doing. They've moved at a pace that he can cope with (introducing new staff members gradually so as not to overwhelm him). They are going above and beyond to find things for him to do and are so encouraging and supportive when he is going somewhere new/somewhere he's a bit overwhelmed.

The term "person centred/client centre" is thrown around a lot and you are promised things then they don't follow through - this is absolutely the opposite at The Trusted Companion- so person centred and genuinely caring. I feel like part of a team and feel the staff really care for and value my son and his opinions and needs. I would highly recommend them, genuinely feels like family

Thankyou for taking the time to review in such detail Claire. It has been, and continues to be an absolute pleasure to work with your boy. He has become part of The Trusted Companion family (as have you all) I cannot thankyou enough for reaching out at the start of this journey.
