Understanding live-in care
With live-in care, a specially chosen Walfinch carer moves into your home to provide ongoing and flexible support.
This may come in the form of companionship and practical support with your day-to-day lifestyle. At Walfinch, we believe you care should fit you – not the other way around.
That’s why we offer our clients this entirely personalised and tailored option for care, helping you and your family with the reassurance that your needs are constantly met.

How might a live-in carer help me?
We’re all individuals – so why should your home care options all be the same? Your live-in care plan is created to best reflect you, your routines and your goals. Therefore, you may want your live in carer to help with things such as:
- Companionship and emotional support
- Personal care, such as toileting and washing
- Domestic tasks, such as cleaning and cooking
- Getting out and about
- Appointment support
- Medication management
- Dressing and grooming
- Activities to improve wellbeing and health-span
However you thrive best, our Walfinch carer will help you do more of it – so you can get the very most out of your days and nights, with reliable care.
My dad, who is 88 this year, has always been very independent and active, but in recent years, house chores have become too much for him… He’s also in the early stages of dementia, so having a live-in carer to keep an eye on him has been incredibly reassuring for us… he can continue living in his own home without any major disruptions, while having 24/7 support.

Help your family win back their peace of mind
Live-in care helps both you, as a client, and your family to thrive. Many families experience anxiety when their loved ones’ care feel uncertain, is unarranged or inadequate. With the trustworthy and reliable support of a Walfinch live-in carer, your family can be assured that you’re able to thrive – even when they’re away. If wanted, your family can receive updates on your wellbeing, manner and health, helping them focus on spending time with you, in the ways that truly matter.


Keep your independent lifestyle
We believe that you thrive best, where you’re most comfortable. Requiring ongoing care throughout the day doesn’t mean you need to move out of your home – we bring our expertise to you. Many clients feel having live-in support helps them stay independent and continue with activities, such as going to the shops or meeting friends, that may otherwise be more difficult to do alone.
Because, at Walfinch, we believe that your care should fit you, not the other way around.
If you have a particular interest, be it baking, walking, sewing, or something else entirely, we will select a live-in carer who, if not shares, truly understands your interests.
However you thrive, do more of it with live-in care
Live-in care can benefit your lifestyle in more ways than one.
Always feel heard
With live-in care, you always have someone to talk to. Late at night or early in the morning – our Walfinch carer understands your individual situation. They can support you throughout your journey, helping you navigate your health and wellbeing – such as attending appointments.
Share your interests
We carefully select your live-in carer to, if not share your interests, understand how you thrive. We’ve had the pleasure of providing live-in care for clients with interests in: art, fashion, literature, sports, nature and wildlife, and even dancing. The list is endless.
Personal care and support
Take the concern out of personal care by having a dedication professional supporting you, whatever the time. Worrying less about hygiene and presentation allows you more time to focus on the things you enjoy.
Peace of mind
Live-in care provides peace of mind for both you and your family. Know you are in good hands, with your dedicated and professional live-in carer – no more anxiety or stress. Just you, doing more of the things you love, in the places you love.
Help around the house
Your live-in carer can support you with domestic tasks, such as cooking and cleaning – helping you enjoy your home, without the challenge of doing it all yourself. We can also work with you to include better nutrition in your meals – because eating better means living better.
Help beyond the house
If you are someone who wants to get out the of house more often, we can absolutely accommodate that. We take many of our live-in care clients to Walfinch Thrive Clubs, the shops, cafés and brunch spots. Wherever you want to go, we ensure you can get there.
Start thriving today through quality care
It’s never too early to kickstart your thriving journey. Use your care to take control back over your life and your health – and we can navigate these uncertain times together.
We don’t see care as the end – it’s just the next chapter. Through various techniques and approaches to care, tailored around your lifestyle and goals, you can make now your time to thrive.
