Home help in Crayford
Looking for home help or a companion for an elderly parent in Crayford?
Families usually find us when they search for home help for the elderly, a companion for an older relative, a befriending or sitting service, or help with shopping and cleaning near Crayford. That is exactly what we do. A regular, friendly visit from the same local support worker covers company, shopping, a cooked meal, light housework and a reminder to take tablets, so your mum or dad can stay independent in their own home.
If you look after someone yourself, our sitting service gives you a planned carer break of three or four hours. We are not a care agency and we do not provide personal care, which is why we can be flexible: visits from 30 minutes, no minimum contract, and the first home assessment in Crayford is free.
Paying for support
Self-funding or a Direct Payment from London Borough of Bexley.
Crayford is in London Borough of Bexley. If the London Borough of Bexley has given you a Direct Payment or Personal Budget, you can use it for our support where your support plan allows it. We send itemised invoices and visit records every month.
If you pay for yourself, there is no minimum contract and you can stop with seven days’ notice. Attendance Allowance can also be spent on support like ours.
Carers need a break too
Our Family Carer Break gives an unpaid carer three or four hours off, with the same familiar support worker each time. Ask your council for a free carer’s assessment too.
What it costs
A personalised quote, agreed before we start.
Every person’s week is different, so we give you a clear written quote after your free home assessment in Crayford. There is no VAT to add, no minimum contract, and nothing to pay until you have agreed it.
