Care at home
Reliable, SEN-Friendly Support in the Comfort of Your Home
Need a helping hand at home? Our Home Support Sessions offer friendly, flexible support for children and adults with Special Educational Needs (SEN), giving families peace of mind while making sure your loved one is safe, happy, and well cared for in their own space.
Whether you're looking for occasional help during evenings, weekends, or school holidays — or just need a short break — our trained team is here to support.
What We Offer
Our home sessions are a relaxed, fun and supportive way to provide care in familiar surroundings. We carefully match each individual with a support worker who understands their needs, interests, and personality.
Support can include:
- Friendly companionship and play
- Support with meals and snacks
- Help with bedtime routines
- Light personal care (as agreed with parents/carers)
- Calming and engaging activities (sensory play, games, crafts, etc.)
- Reassurance, safety, and consistency for the individual
- Respite for parents, carers, or guardians
Our goal is to make your child or young person feel comfortable and confident while you're able to take time for yourself.
Who It’s For
Our Home Support Sessions are ideal for:
- Children and young people aged 5+ with SEN
- Adults who need gentle, structured care at home
- Families needing evening, weekend, or holiday support
- Parents who want peace of mind when stepping out or taking a break
- Anyone looking for a babysitting-style service with a trained SEN professional
Every session is completely tailored — whether it’s for a few hours or a full day.
When We Can Help
We offer flexible support, including:
- After school care
- Evening and overnight sessions (where suitable)
- Weekend and holiday daytime care
- One-off bookings or regular sessions
- Emergency cover, when available
We'll always work with you to create a plan that fits your schedule and your child’s needs.
