Questions families ask
Who buys the food?
Agree it at the start: either you do the shopping, or the carer does and you pay them back against receipts.
Is one visit a day enough?
It depends on the person. Some families find a hot lunch plus a tea left ready works well; others need two shorter visits.
How does an introduction work?

Why I started Carers & Cleaners
When my mum, Jean, was diagnosed with dementia, I found it surprisingly hard to find good local help. In the end we found a wonderful independent carer, and later a cleaner, by word of mouth. I built Carers & Cleaners so other families don't have to rely on luck.
