CQC-registered live-in care at home, providing dedicated one-to-one support so your loved one can remain safely in familiar surroundings with round-the-clock care.
Live-in care provides dedicated, round-the-clock support from a professional carer who lives in your loved one’s home. Unlike residential care, it allows individuals to remain in familiar surroundings while receiving personalised, one-to-one attention.
Our carers become trusted companions, assisting with daily activities such as personal care, medication management, meal preparation, and household tasks—all while encouraging independence and maintaining dignity.
Whether your loved one needs support due to age-related conditions, recovering from illness, or living with a long-term health condition, live-in care offers a flexible, compassionate alternative to moving into a care home.
Our live-in carers provide comprehensive, personalised support covering all aspects of daily living, enabling your loved one to maintain their quality of life at home.
Dignified assistance with bathing, dressing, grooming, and personal hygiene tailored to individual preferences.
Ensuring medications are taken correctly and on time, with careful monitoring and record keeping.
Nutritious, home-cooked meals prepared according to dietary requirements and personal tastes.
Meaningful conversation, shared activities, and emotional support to combat loneliness and isolation.
Light housekeeping, laundry, shopping, and maintaining a clean, comfortable living environment.
Safe support with moving around the home, transfers, and accompanying to appointments or outings.
Live-in care is suitable for a wide range of needs and circumstances. These include:
Specialist support for memory conditions with consistent, familiar care in the home environment
Dedicated care during recuperation after surgery, illness, or hospital discharge.
Ongoing support for Parkinson’s, MS, stroke recovery, and other chronic conditions.
Compassionate support for age-related care needs, maintaining independence at home.
We believe that exceptional care starts with understanding the individual. Our approach ensures every aspect of care is tailored to your loved one’s unique needs, preferences, and lifestyle.
We begin with a thorough assessment to understand care needs, medical history, daily routines, preferences, and personality. This forms the foundation of a truly personalised care plan.
We take time to match your loved one with a carer whose skills, experience, and personality complement their needs. Compatibility is key to building a trusting, comfortable relationship.
Care needs can change over time. Our care plans are regularly reviewed and adapted to ensure they continue to meet evolving requirements, with your input every step of the way.
Your dedicated care manager maintains regular contact, providing updates and being available whenever you need guidance or have questions about your loved one's care.
Live-in care costs in London typically range from £1,400 to £2,100 per week, depending on the complexity of care needs, the level of specialist training required, and whether one or two carers are needed. For specialist dementia live-in care, costs tend to sit at the higher end of this range due to the additional training, supervision, and consistency requirements.
At Tidal Living, our live-in care packages include: a dedicated primary carer with a named backup for continuity, a psychotherapist-reviewed care plan, regular care plan reviews, 24/7 on-call management support, and all carer living expenses. There are no hidden fees.
