Our approach to home care in the Craiglockhart area of Edinburgh feels refreshingly different – more like having a trusted family member visit than standard care. We’re delighted to have earned an ‘Excellent’ rating from the Care Inspectorate, but what truly sets us apart is how our Care Professionals become genuine companions, taking time to understand what makes each day special for our clients. Whether it’s arranging a leisurely lunch at Craigie’s Farm Deli or a peaceful afternoon in the garden, we believe care should adapt naturally to your preferences while supporting independence. Our Care Professionals visit at times that suit you, providing consistent support that feels natural and comfortable.
