Hourly home care
Outstanding, locally managed hourly visiting home care
What is hourly home care?
Hourly home care is a tailored service designed to help you stay independent and comfortable in your own home with a care plan that meets your unique needs.
At Daisy Homecare, we provide truly personalised hourly care, delivered by experienced carers under the guidance of our dedicated local care management team. Our service starts with one-hour visits at times that suit you best and can be extended to include longer sessions, overnight care, or even live-in support if your needs evolve.
Your carer can assist with a wide range of tasks, including companionship, meal preparation, housekeeping, personal care, medication support, and specialised care for conditions like dementia, Parkinson’s, or recovery after a stroke. We understand that needs can change, and we’re here to adapt your care plan as required to ensure you’re supported every step of the way.

Every member of our care team is carefully selected through a rigorous recruitment process, including interviews, reference checks, and an Enhanced DBS Check.

Hourly home care FAQ's
Hourly home care is a flexible service that provides tailored support to individuals in the comfort of their own homes. It can include help with everyday tasks such as housekeeping, companionship, personal care, medication management, and specialised support for conditions like dementia or Parkinson’s. Care can range from a single one-hour visit to 24-hour coverage, including overnight care, whether as a sleep-in service or waking night care.
Hourly home care allows individuals to maintain their independence while staying in the familiar surroundings of their own home. It offers the reassurance of one-to-one support, helping clients maintain control over their daily routines, enjoy visits from family and friends, stay with their pets, and, for couples, remain together. It also helps reduce the risk of accidents or unplanned care decisions by offering proactive and consistent support.
Yes, hourly home care is highly adaptable. Whether you need occasional assistance to ease into care or more intensive support involving coordination with GPs and district nurses for complex conditions, our services are personalised to your specific needs and preferences.
The frequency of visits is entirely based on your individual requirements. You might need as little as one hour per week, several daily visits, or even overnight care. After a comprehensive care assessment, we’ll design a plan that fits your needs and can adjust it as circumstances change.
Yes, we also provide locally managed live-in care services. This option allows individuals or families needing more intensive support to remain at home rather than moving into a residential care facility. Learn more about our live-in care services by contacting our team.
