The service we're building next — and won't open early.
Companionship, light housekeeping, meal prep and mobility support for an elderly parent at home. It opens once our carer training and supervision pipeline is deep enough to promise the same trained person at every visit. Join the waitlist and we'll tell you the week it does.
The question to ask every provider, including us.
Elder care is the one household service where the wrong worker does real harm. Ask for the paperwork, and ask it of everyone — the answer should be immediate and in writing.
When elder-minding opens, every household will get the deployed worker's training record, certifications and tenure in writing before the first visit is booked — not on request, as a matter of course.
Six steady things, on a quiet schedule.
Sessions will run 2 to 4 hours, on the rhythm that suits the household — most families we've spoken to want two mornings a week to start with, then adjust.
Companionship
A real conversation, the newspaper, the radio, a slow walk to the void deck. The visit isn't a list — it's company.
Light housekeeping
Bedroom, bathroom, kitchen surfaces, laundry put away. A full home clean is a separate booking, not something squeezed into a care visit.
Meal preparation
A simple meal cooked or warmed through. We can follow a family recipe and stay within dietary needs — low-salt, soft food, halal.
Medication reminders
We don't dispense — we remind, observe, and flag to the family if anything is missed or changes.
Mobility support
Help moving around the flat, accompanied walks, support to and from the medical clinic. Manual handling certified.
A useful visit note
A short WhatsApp note to the family after each visit — what was done, how the resident was, what to know for next time.
Same carer, every visit — or it isn't worth launching.
Rotation is what breaks home care. A parent with a fading memory cannot keep meeting strangers, and a family cannot keep re-explaining the routine. So elder-minding only opens when we can pair one trained carer to one household and hold that pairing through the year — which means the training pipeline, the supervision ratio and the pay have to be there first.
- WSQ certification in elder care, first aid, infection control and manual handling
- Supervised shadow shifts signed off before any solo visit
- 1 supervisor : 8 carers, with cover briefed in person, never dispatched cold
- Above-Progressive-Wage pay, so the carer who knows your father in March is there in October
Not a live-in helper, and not a clinic.
For medical procedures, wound care, injections, catheter management or any nursing-level need, the right call is a registered home-nursing service. We'll happily coordinate around one — we will never present ourselves as a replacement for it. Elder-minding is basic minding: company, meals, the flat kept liveable, and someone who notices when something changes.
Two things we can do for the household today.
Home sessions are open now, and for many families that already removes the heaviest part of keeping a parent's flat liveable — the laundry, the beds, the bathroom. Errands cover the other half: the weekly shop, the pharmacy shelf, the pet food nobody remembers.
Tell us about your parent. We'll write when it opens.
Send a short message — the area, who lives there, and what kind of help you're weighing up. You'll hear from the operations lead, not a mailing list.
