The Retford & Gainsborough Home Help & House Keeping team, here to help every step of the way

Home help and housekeeping is one of the many services that we offer to the local community within Retford, Bawtry, Tickhill and Gainsborough. We know a neat and clean property can make a difference to the health and wellbeing of older adults. This is why we offer home help and housekeeping, which means our local Care Professionals can support with various chores and tasks, ensuring the property is in great condition and reducing strain on your loved one, whilst giving them time back to do what they love. Since all our care packages are tailored specifically to the individual, it means we can meet regular routines, and your loved one can get as little or as much support as they need.

Why Home Help & House Keeping may be right for you

Our home help and housekeeping service has a wide variety of support that our Care Professionals can assist with, and this includes but is not limited to putting bins out, laundry, dusting, vacuuming and even supporting with any family pets. Your loved one will be matched to a Care Professional who, courtesy of our one-hour minimum call time, will take their time to get to know how your loved one likes to keep everything organised around the house. There are a lot of benefits to home help, and some include removing any clutter or unwanted items that could become a trip hazard, supporting your loved one to create an ideal space that makes them feel comfortable.
