What working parents and carers say...
We judge ourselves by the feedback we receive from you
"Backup Adult & Eldercare provides an easy, reliable way to provide support to elderly relatives, particularly at a distance, that can otherwise be very diffcult and time-consuming to arrange."
"Fantastic service. Gave me (and my family) great peace of mind while at work and removed a lot of the stress that we would have had if we didn't have this service. The Work+Family Space team were very supportive of my situation and dealt with my requirements very efficiently. Fast, efficient, reliable, friendly and supportive team. Not only gave me peace of mind, but also my family."
Manoj booked a home carer
"I cannot emphasise enough the benefit the carer has been for me and my family. A huge thank-you for offering this - please may it continue!!
The carer has given my step-mother (who suffers from Alzheimer’s) some of the freedom she so happily took for granted even a couple of years ago. The positive difference the half day a week gives both her; myself and my father is immeasurable. She sees "Mo" as her best friend now, and looks forward to the visit waiting by the front door for her arrival happily for a few hours - to make sure she doesn't miss her."
Angela booked a home carer
"I needed transport for my mother who had to be collected from dialysis. Everybody I spoke to was very helpful, professional yet still maintained a friendly attitude."
Julie booked a home carer
"This emergency package has really helped my family and I. It has taken a huge weight off of my mind to know that I can call and that they are so flexible and accommodating. They have treated my Mum with respect and shown a great deal of understanding and care to our situation. They have helped with hospital appointments and help around the home and it has taken huge pressure off of my brother and I."
Emma booked a home carer
"I was impressed by the booking process, my parents were impressed with the carer and the service provided. It really helped me."
Paul booked a home carer
"The service was particularly valuable to me as we were abroad on holiday when my father fell ill and we realised he would need care on return to the UK.
I was able to arrange suitable care via email and it was a great weight off my mind at a time when we were struggling with medical insurers and the French medical system.
The huge benefit of this service is that you know that backup care will be available when it is needed and that Work+Family Space will arrange it for you - it provides enormous peace of mind."
