About Maranello
Maranello is a residential care home in Thaxted supporting adults with a learning disability or autism, and we also offer respite stays. We are a small home in a quiet Essex village, and both of those things matter. Small means everybody knows everybody and support can genuinely be shaped around individuals. Quiet means the environment is calm, which for a lot of the people we support is the difference between a manageable day and an overwhelming one. People here have their own rooms and their own belongings, and a real say in how the household runs, from meals and shopping to how the week is planned. Our staff support people to do things rather than doing things for them, and we treat independence as something built through practice. Communication is where we start with everyone. Some of the people here use speech, others use signs, symbols or objects, and others show us what they need through behaviour that takes patience to read properly. We put the time in and keep at it. Routines here are steady, and changes are planned and explained well in advance rather than sprung on anybody. Respite guests are part of the household while they are with us and receive the same support as anyone else. If you would like to look round, please get in touch and we will arrange a visit at a time that suits you.
