How did you choose the best home carers in Milton Keynes?

By what their clients said first, then by their record. We start from every carer who offers visits and is based within about 45 minutes of Milton Keynes, and keep those with a studio portrait and a profile that says enough about them to be useful. They are ordered by their client rating and how many reviews they have, then by whether a client wrote a review we can quote, then by their record with PrimeCarers, their years of experience and the care they have given through us. All 6 carers profiled here have client reviews, averaging 5.0 out of 5.

Are the carers on this page checked?

Yes. Before a carer appears on PrimeCarers they have passed an enhanced DBS check, an identity check and a right-to-work check, and recorded an online interview. That DBS must have been issued within the last 2 years, and it has to be renewed every 2 years. Their skills, qualifications and training are for you to check with them. How we check carers sets out each step.

Can we meet a carer before booking?

Yes, and it is worth doing. Message the carers you like through PrimeCarers with the visits you need and anything that has been difficult, then arrange a video call or a visit. Talking to a carer is free and nothing is booked until you say so. Most families speak to two or three carers before choosing.

How much do the best home carers in Milton Keynes charge?

The carers profiled on this page charge £19 to £30 an hour, with our fee included. Across Milton Keynes carers charge £19 to £22 an hour, typically £20. Agencies usually charge £28 to £35 an hour for a visit. The cost of home care in Milton Keynes works through what a week of visits comes to.

Are there carers in Milton Keynes with dementia experience?

11 of the 12 carers on this page list dementia on their profile. A tick on a profile is the carer's own description, so ask each one about the people with dementia they have cared for and what they found hardest. Dementia care at home covers what good support looks like at each stage.

Do any of the carers in Milton Keynes speak a language other than English?

Yes. Between them the carers on this page speak Afrikaans, Akan, Dutch, FANTE, German, Hindi, Igbo, Kashmiri, Punjabi, Urdu and Yoruba as well as English, and the search can filter by language. For someone whose first language has come back to them with age or dementia, a carer who shares it can make visits much easier.

What if the first carer is not right?

Then you choose another, and the same search shows who else is available. For visits, notice under the contract is 48 hours, and PrimeCarers makes no charge to stop or change carer. It helps to agree at the start that the first couple of weeks are a trial for both of you. Our team can help you find someone else in the meantime.

Can one of these carers stay overnight or live in?

Some can, and their profile says so. Of the carers profiled here, 3 also offer overnight care and 2 offer live-in care. Live-in carers travel much further for a placement than visiting carers do, so the best live-in carers in Milton Keynes is a separate page, drawn from a wider area.

Catherine O.

Client rating: 5.0from 3 reviews
Hourly rate: £20 an hour, our fee included

In Catherine’s words

“Every week brings a different mix of visits for me, and what I enjoy most is settling into someone's home and finding out how they like things done, whether that's a cup of tea a particular way or knowing exactly where the sponges and utensils belong. I offer hourly visiting care around Buckingham and have spent 30 years in this work, moving between nursing homes, schools and private homes, which has given me a real feel for supporting people of any age.”

She never felt like a nanny, more like family - who to this date we sorely miss. She continues to be our source of advice and we have kept in touch. The twins can't forget her and we don't want them to lose that connection with her. Hers will be hard shoes to fill!

“I am a trustworthy, honest, and humble person. I am very meticulous with my work and I work very hard. I strive for what I want and keep my goals in mind 24/7.

Leander B.

Client rating: 5.0from 1 review
Hourly rate: £28.50 an hour, our fee included

In Leander’s words

“I am hugely passionate about treating people the way I (or any person/member of my family) deserves to be cared for. I am kind, caring, compassionate, intelligent and I have a great sense of humour. I became a care professional after immigrating to the UK two & a half years ago as I had taken care of my mother-in-law who had dementia and I wanted to make a difference in people’s lives!”

When Leander was visiting I knew that mum would be happy, content and in good hands. Leander went beyond her duties to assure that her visits are meaningful to mum, mum’s needs are met and exceeded. I wholeheartedly recommend Leander to anyone who is looking for a companion or carer.

Hourly rate: £30 an hour, our fee included
Through PrimeCarers: 325 hours of care

In Natasha’s words

“Twenty years in, I still think the small things matter most: getting someone comfortable with a hoist before breakfast, checking a nebuliser is set up right, or simply sitting with a cup of tea and no agenda. That mix of practical skill and unhurried company is what I bring to every visit I make across Northampton, whether it's a short hourly call or a full overnight stay.”
