Snjezana R
Carer · 8.6 km away
“I’d say Snjezana is the best live in we’ve had here. She would get up early in the morning and make herself busy cleaning and tidying before anyone else was up.”

“We still (over two years later) see Rose as part of our extended family and invite her to our celebrations.”
Vetted means we check identity and right to work and require an enhanced DBS certificate before a carer can use the platform, and we interview carers about their experience and approach to care. You choose your carer, and remain responsible for checking their skills, training and documents suit your needs. See what we check, and what you check.

Florie is friendly, caring and reliable and goes out of her way to make sure my Dad is cared for. Having someone I can depend on, as I live in Australia, is a great weight off my mind.
