The Epping Forest Home Help & Housekeeping team, here to help every step of the way

Home help and housekeeping aren’t just about keeping things tidy—they’re about helping clients maintain independence and live comfortably in their own homes. In Epping Forest, where we provide care across Ongar, Waltham Abbey, Old Harlow, Chigwell, and beyond, our support covers everything from light housekeeping and laundry to meal preparation and companionship. With our minimum one-hour visits, we take the time to check in, see how a client is truly feeling, and make sure their home is a safe, welcoming place.

Why Home Help & Housekeeping may be right for you

Unlike other companies, we don’t wear uniforms, making our visits feel more like a friend or family stopping by rather than a clinical care visit. This approach keeps things relaxed and friendly, while also maintaining dignity and respect for each client. As a family-run office with a 10/10 review rating on homecare.co.uk, we’re proud to offer a unique, relationship-focused service that goes beyond ticking off household chores on a checklist. Our Care Professionals get to know each client’s preferences and routines, so it’s never “just another visit.”

Tailored Home Help & Housekeeping in Epping Forest

Home help services solve both practical and emotional needs by ensuring clients have a comfortable, well-maintained home while staying socially connected. When we come out to create a Care Plan, we work with families to decide what would be most helpful – whether that’s regular housework, meal prep, grocery shopping, or even some gardening. One client, Mrs. Thompson, loves fresh flowers, so her Care Professional helps her choose a few each week and arranges them around the house. It’s these personal touches that make a real difference, supporting both independence and wellbeing.
