Get in touch Why Day Care may be right for you
No two clients are the same, so our day care visits are never one-size-fits-all. Some clients enjoy sharing memories over a cup of tea, while others prefer light activities like gardening, puzzles, or gentle exercise. We also support clients to attend local groups, take short outings, or simply enjoy a relaxed chat at home. Care Professionals are carefully matched to ensure comfort and companionship from the start. Our goal is to help clients maintain their independence, remain socially connected, and enjoy the daily routines that bring meaning. Each visit is a chance to engage, not just to be looked after.
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.

Very friendly and efficient staff and service. Carers are willing to please and bend over backwards to supply meals, companionship, personal care if needed and help with day to day tasks.
They are always there to listen and cheer me up on my down days.
AM, Client
Home Instead are excellent at what they do. The carers who have looked after my Aunt have been punctual, attentive and caring at all times. Office staff have also been very helpful and easy to contact. We could not have wished for better service.
Brian, Nephew of Client
The care companions have been so much more than carers. They’ve become like Dad’s friends, friends who cook, clean and shop but who also sit and chat, really listen and do those little extra special things that make him feel valued. I know Dad has been pleased. For my sisters and me, it’s given us peace of mind to have found an organisation who doesn’t just pay lip service to caring.
Sarah, daughter of Client
Our carer is an amazing young woman. We look at her as one of the family, and we couldn’t do without her. On a personal view, she is my only contact with the outside world, (of course we see our family very often) and they think she is a “star”!
JB, wife of Client
Tailored Day Care in Shoreham, Petts Wood and Longfield
Families often share in their reviews how our day care has brought reassurance and joy. One client’s daughter wrote: “They let mum keep her independence which is very important to her… They have taken the worry away from my sister and I when we are on holiday, knowing that there is always someone there to look after mum.” These words reflect how day care can do more than pass the time, it restores confidence, offers gentle motivation, and eases the pressure for families. Whether it’s a morning routine or a cheerful afternoon visit, we help make every day more manageable and meaningful.
