My experiences with Beth have been fantastic. I would say that out of all the carers that looked after my Dad, Beth was the best on many levels. She really went the extra mile for my Dad to make his last days very memorable and ensuring that his departure was very peaceful. Beth works with all the family members during very difficult times and provides a very positive outlook on life. I would highly recommend Beth to anyone seeking a professional carer with a human touch.

Beth has been working with our family for the last year providing care for our 92 year old mother who had Alzheimer’s and Dementia. Beth was not just ‘a carer’ and the impact she had on mums life was amazing-so much so that it allowed us to keep her in her own home and not have to put her into a care home. Beth would always go the extra mile with everything she did for mum - personal care, housework, errands and enrichment. As far as mum was concerned she always said Beth was her friend. It made our lives easier knowing Beth was looking after mum and she has become a close friend to us all. I cannot speak highly enough of Beth and would highly recommend her to anyone. Her kindness, compassion, knowledge, expertise and professionalism are second to none and for that we will be very grateful for all the wonderful care she gave to mum

Beth helped us look after mum until she died. Beth is kind, thorough, observant and always made the effort to engage mum in her daily routine. She helped us think through solutions to problem, is very well trained and competent . Beth also developed a good rapport with us as a family. She was reliable and punctual. I highly recommend Beth. I trained as a nurse so do have relevant experience and understanding.
