Worried about your mum or dad living at home with Alzheimer’s or Dementia?
We provide Gentle, structured private in-home support for people living with memory loss, Alzheimer’s, or cognitive conditions.
The Hidden Crisis
When your parent or loved one is living with dementia, everyday life can feel like a constant balancing act. Families often wait too long — until they’re exhausted, overwhelmed, or struggling to cope.
Public dementia support is limited and difficult to access. That’s why more families in Christchurch and Tauranga are turning to private dementia care at home — to protect their loved one’s safety and preserve their own well-being.

Testimonials
Real Family Feedback
“In early 2016 my much loved brother was diagnosed with dementia and the very rapid cognitive decline in this vibrant, intelligent man filled him with acute anxiety and confusion and devastated his loving family.
Home Carers were introduced and quickly became a vital support in our lives. Professional and efficient carers were consistent and compassionate, significantly reducing his anxiety and confusion.
Pip
Our parents were provided with exceptional care over a 6 month period, so that we were able to keep them living independently in their home at a time when they were struggling with declining health and dementia. The Assistants were extremely caring and kind and went above and beyond to make sure our parents were well looked after.”
Sarah, Helen, Anne & Lawrence Kimberley
“I am profoundly grateful for the care my brother has received, and have no doubt that their expertise has extended the time my brother has been able to remain in his own home. All these services have been undertaken with persistent patience, courtesy, and good humour. All the carers have been unfailingly kind, and respectful of my brother, often under very trying circumstances. I recommend this service without reservation, and am happy to be contacted independently at any stage.”
