About The Live In Care Company
We at The Live In Care Company are proud to offer dedicated home care across Reading and the surrounding Wokingham area, bringing professional support directly into the place our clients love most: their own home. Based in the RG postcode area of Reading, we are well positioned to reach families throughout the town and wider South East region. Rather than asking your loved one to adjust to an unfamiliar environment, our approach allows them to remain surrounded by the comforts, memories, and routines that make their house a home. Familiar gardens, treasured photographs, favourite armchairs, and beloved neighbours all stay exactly where they belong, whilst compassionate support arrives on the doorstep. Our specialism in live in care means a carefully matched carer shares the home with your loved one, providing continuous companionship and practical assistance day and night. We support older people who simply need a helping hand with daily living, as well as younger adults seeking to maintain their independence with the right level of support behind them. Our experience extends to dementia care, where consistency and familiar surroundings can make a profound difference to wellbeing, helping to reduce the anxiety and disorientation that unfamiliar settings can sometimes bring. For those living with mental health conditions, we offer a calm, steady presence and a respectful approach that prioritises dignity and emotional wellbeing. We also support individuals with physical disabilities, assisting with mobility, personal care, and the everyday tasks that can become challenging, always working at the pace of the person we are caring for. Our carers are experienced in supporting clients with visual or hearing impairments, communicating thoughtfully and adapting the home environment to promote safety, confidence, and independence. In practice, this means your loved one receives one to one attention from a carer who truly knows them: their preferences, their history, their little routines that make each day feel right. From preparing a favourite breakfast and managing medication, to accompanying trips into Reading town centre or simply sharing a cup of tea and good conversation, the support is shaped entirely around the individual. Families gain reassurance knowing that someone trusted is always there, and they can step back from the demanding role of full time carer to simply enjoy being a son, daughter, husband, or wife once again. As a newer entry on the CQC register, our profile is currently listed as Not Yet Rated, which means the Care Quality Commission has not yet completed a formal inspection. We welcome the scrutiny that comes with regulation and remain committed to delivering care of the highest standard from day one, underpinned by careful staff selection, thorough training, and a genuine culture of kindness. If you are exploring care options for someone dear to you, we warmly invite you to get in touch. We understand this is rarely an easy moment, and we are here to listen, answer your questions, and help you consider whether live in care at home might be the right path forward for your family.
