Balancing the demands of daily life with the emotional responsibility of caring for an ageing loved one can feel overwhelming, hence our services extend to supporting families with live-in care. Whether you’re working full-time, managing a family, or simply navigating the unpredictability of everyday life, having the right care in place for your loved one is essential – not just for their wellbeing, but for your peace of mind.
At Braeburn Care, we know that home care is about more than just practical support. It’s about trust, empathy, and being there when it matters most – especially during those moments when families need to step away. That’s why our live-in care and respite services have become such an important part of what we offer across Kent and East Sussex.
Real Support, Real Impact
Recently, we had the privilege of supporting a customer whose daughter needed to travel to London for work over a number of days. Her mother, who lives alone, required attentive and continuous care. Although the daughter had always been hands-on with her mother’s support, the time had come when she needed to step away – and that’s where Braeburn Care stepped in.
Before her departure, our care team worked closely with her to go through every aspect of her mum’s routines, preferences, and wellbeing needs. We carefully tailored a live-in care plan that reflected not only her medical and physical needs, but also her comfort and personal choices. The aim wasn’t just to ensure safety – but to provide warmth, companionship, and a feeling of home.
This is what she shared after returning home:
“Braeburn provided much-needed respite live-in care for some days when I was working in London. The carer was so lovely with my mum and mum felt safe and so cared for during the time she was here. Braeburn were so careful to go through every detail of all the things my mum required before I left, and it was invaluable for me to be able to get on with my work knowing my mum was in safe hands while I was away. Thank you so much! Highly recommended!”
This kind of feedback reminds us that the impact of live-in care extends far beyond daily tasks – it’s about the reassurance and trust we provide to families, and the comfort we bring to those we care for.
Supporting Families with Live-In Care
Live-in care is becoming an increasingly popular alternative to residential care homes. It allows individuals to remain in the comfort and familiarity of their own home while receiving the round-the-clock support they need. At Braeburn Care, our live-in carers don’t just offer professional support – they become trusted companions.
Our live-in care services can include:
- Personal care (washing, dressing, toileting)
- Medication management
- Support with mobility and transfers
- Meal planning and preparation
- Companionship and emotional support
- Housekeeping and maintaining a clean, safe environment
- Regular communication with family members
And most importantly, everything we do is centred around the customer’s preferences, promoting independence and preserving dignity.
A Flexible, Family-Focused Approach
Whether you need ongoing live-in care, emergency cover, or short-term respite support while you’re away, we tailor our services to your specific needs. Many of our clients begin with a short period of live-in care and then return for ad hoc support as needed – and we’re always here when you need us.
Families can also rest assured that we take continuity of care seriously. Before any arrangement begins, we carry out a thorough care planning process that includes input from all involved parties. We also offer regular updates to family members, so you’re never out of the loop.
Peace of Mind for Working Families
For working families, especially those based in or commuting to cities like London, having a dependable live-in care provider locally in areas such as Tunbridge Wells, Tonbridge, Sevenoaks, and Crowborough can be life-changing. It means you can focus on work, knowing your loved one is not only looked after, but also emotionally supported.
This service is particularly valuable for:
- Those balancing demanding jobs and caring responsibilities
- Families who live far away from their ageing relatives
- Individuals seeking temporary or emergency care cover
- Carers who need a break but want their loved one to remain safe and cared for at home
