Hi, I'm Amanda Paterson and I know firsthand how difficult it can be to find the right person to assist you or your loved one at home. I struggled to find someone to help my own parents and this is why I expanded my business. I started cleaning for the elderly in 2018 and soon realised some also needed extra support at home. My aim is to make life easier for the individual and their family by simplifying the steps and providing the absolute highest quality of support at home.

About Me

My father was determined to live independently and in his own home. This would not have been possible without Amanda. She cooked meals for the freezer,  made wonderful things like pancakes for an afternoon treat, took him shopping and supported him in living independently into his 90s. Amanda is friendly,  professional, organised and reliable. Knowing she was supporting Dad gave me great peace of mind.

Amanda provides much more than just a little help at home. Her assistance has helped my dad to live independently far longer than I thought was possible. It's clearly not just a job for Amanda - she genuinely cares about my dad, looks out for his welfare, gives him much needed company and keeps us well informed if she notices anything that needs attention. Although we employed her initially for some basic housework tasks, she's now doing so much more and we greatly appreciate her work. Thank you, Amanda.

 

Kind regards, 

Rick

I am delighted to recommend Amanda who was outstanding in the care and support that she gave to my mother in a time of need. Amanda very quickly felt like a member of the family and was trusted by all. Her kindness, care and genuine compassion were exceptional. Amanda often went above and beyond what was asked of her when she saw a need to be filled. Amanda provided not only assistance but companionship in the last few months of my mother's life. Knowing that you have someone that you can trust who can motivate an elderly person to do some gentle exercise, eat something or engage in conversation is invaluable. Amanda popping in with the shopping or simply spending 10 minutes having a cup of tea meant so much to my mother. 

I cannot thank Amanda enough for her support and would not hesitate in recommending her to anyone looking for additional help in caring for an elderly relative.

Before needing to move into a care home, my mum received fantastic support from Amanda. As well as a cleaning and laundry service, Amanda provided company and a caring, watchful eye which was very reassuring to us as a family. Amanda's weekly presence was key in enabling our mum to remain in her own home for longer.
