The Retford & Gainsborough Day Care team, here to help every step of the way
At Home Instead, we can provide day care for your loved one across the areas of Retford, Gainsborough, Bawtry and Tickhill. This allows a combination of support that can include companionship, meaningful activity and staying engaged at home during daytime hours. Our Care Professionals can visit and, together with your loved one, they can bake, play a puzzle or maybe do some simple chair exercises to keep in shape. That is not all, as all our Care Professionals have business insurance and are insured to take clients out and about, whether that be a visit to King’s Park or a regular coffee shop. We are rated 9.9/10 on homecare.co.uk, and this is a testament to our high-quality care services and how we strive to be the best at what we do.

Get in touch Why Day Care may be right for you
The day care that we provide will be backed up by a plan that is tailored to your loved one, their interests, abilities and what can enhance their quality of life. For any clients in Harworth or Bircotes, this could mean reminiscing to spark previous memories, especially for anyone that is living with dementia. Not everyone is the same, so others can benefit from restorative support that allows them to build up their confidence and mobility at their own pace following a hospital visit or any setbacks. The Home Instead way is a minimum of one-hour visits, as we believe this truly gives the Care Professional time to engage with conversation, building rapport rather than rushing through tasks, and this is the Home Instead difference.
What we do to care for your loved ones
We offer two types of home care: hourly care, where we visit at set times, or live-in care, where a carer resides in the home. Both are overseen by our care management team and delivered by compassionate Care Professionals. Each care package is made up of a unique mix of services to meet your needs.

We have only been using Home Instead for about 3 months – but we are very pleased with the service. My mum and dad are very fond of the carers – 2 in particular, and the advise that myself and my brother have received from the office has been very supportive.
There have been several problems with the medication and conversations with the pharmacy, and it has all been dealt with very efficiently by Home Instead. My brother and I are pleased we have chosen Home Instead to oversee the care and welfare of our parents, when we are not able to be there as often as we wish.
S D (Daughter of Client)
The service we have received has been excellent. We have used Home Instead for the last four years and not only have they looked after Mum with excellent care, they have also looked after me, as a family member, and been there for me when things have been challenging with Mum.
Mum was very fond of many of the carers and never had a bad word to say about any of them. I was able to work with Home Instead at all times, to adapt the care package to meet Mum’s needs over time, through friendly and professional discussions, some of which were outside of working hours and at no point was the service provided compromised in any way.
Paul N (Son of Client)
I am so pleased we chose Home Instead. They provide an extremely good service. My sister has them once a day to oversee her medicines which she was forgetting to take and causing health problems. As I live away from my sister it is reassuring to know she is being cared for and is able to continue living in her own home.
They offer so much help in the home from light cleaning to bed-making, shopping and making her a sandwich for lunch. All things that now she finds difficult and unable to do for herself. Perhaps most importantly they provide a daily, friendly companionship.

Tailored Day Care in Retford & Gainsborough
Families often tell us how much reassurance it brings to know their loved one is receiving not only high-quality care but also thoughtful communication and genuine support. Michael H shared on homecare.co.uk that Home Instead “provided an excellent service for my mother when she returned home after a brief spell in hospital following a fall.” He praised the “first-class communication,” highlighting how our care app provides a report after each visit, and added that “the team enabled my mother to stay living at home as independent as she could be.” That combination of clear communication, professional care and a focus on independence is what gives families confidence their loved ones are safe, supported and truly cared for at home.
