My dear dad died recently. In our family there are a number of people with complex needs. My father was beloved by them and their carers. My mum of 90 years was totally distraught by my dad's death. She needed our attention at the funeral. We had at short notice to find carers for 3 adults. My son aged
57 and his friend who is 60. They both have Downs syndrome are non verbal and have profound learning difficulties. My foster daughter aged 23 who is blind, non verbal and has severe learning difficulties. I came across 'Visiting Angels'.
From the first contact they were friendly and accomodating. They met our family members. They spent a day shadowing the current carers, so that by the time of the funeral (Which went over 2 days) they were au fait with the care needed by our 3 adults. All three were happy when we left and when we returned. The 2 women were lovely. They were friendly, personable and good communicators.
I would highly recommend them and this agency.

Visiting Angels Review:
I recently had major surgery and needed daily care. All the carers from Visiting Angels have been wonderful! They are sensitive, patient and very professional. What's really special is that they always go above and beyond. Thank you to three staff members in particular for going
the extra mile and for your genuine care.

My elderly mother lives alone and needs help getting up and going to bed. We've been with Visiting Angels for two months, since December 2024. They've provided an excellent service with experienced, friendly carers. They've also shown great flexibility, scheduling extra visits and cancelling planned
visits when not needed at fairly short notice. I would certainly recommend them.

I continue to be very impressed with Visiting Angels' care for my mother. Some of the carers have developed strong personal relationships with my mother, and have looked after her over and above their professional role. The organisation is sincere, approachable, flexible and friendly.

I cannot express enough how grateful we are for the exceptional care provided by Visiting Angels. Their team has been a wonderful support for my father, assisting him with his morning routine, including getting up, washing, dressing, and enjoying breakfast.
In the evenings, they are just as dedicated,
helping him prepare for bed and ensuring he feels comfortable and secure. The carers are not only professional but also genuinely caring, which has given our family peace of mind.
I also want to highlight the managers, who always respond to any questions or requests for help promptly. Their understanding and compassion during the initial assessment meeting truly made us feel supported. We feel incredibly safe knowing that my dad is in such good hands.
Thank you, Visiting Angels, for the compassion and dedication you show every day!

I could not be happier with the care my mum received. Carers were always on time and respected my mum's wishes, which could be challenging at times because of her dementia. They gave me peace of mind and support. They also could help at short notice, which enabled me to have breaks away.

Visiting Angels live up to their name! They not only help my mother, but they are there to support me as well. I am so pleased I have found Visiting Angels and I would tell anyone who needs care, help and support to go to Visiting Angels. They have changed our lives! The team of carers that support
my mother really do care for her.

My father-in-law's life has been changed for the better by three carers, in particular, from Visiting Angels Barnet. They are truly angels who take their role as carers to another level. Dad now goes for regular walks, sits out in the garden, eats well and enjoys their company. This has made a massive
change to the quality of his life. The manager of the team is outstanding and nothing is too much trouble. She doesn't wait for us to contact her but asks us if there is anything more the team can do for Dad. She is always looking to see how she can improve Dad's care. We count ourselves lucky to have her. The two amazing carers go above and beyond on a daily basis and genuinely care for Dad. My husband and I are very grateful to these 3 amazing people.

Only one word can express what we feel about Visiting Angels Barnet and that is outstanding. The staff and management care deeply about the wellbeing of anyone they look after. They treat people they care for not just as customers, but as individuals whose needs change over time. They listen and they
learn and offer practical and sensitive solutions to any challenges they are presented with. My dad was very resistant to care of any kind but welcomed the carers when he saw how they wanted to get to know him as a person, made him feel safe, but most importantly did their utmost to make him feel that his happiness was their primary focus. This is truly 5-star 'care with a smile' where nothing is too much trouble. The carers are very well trained, well managed and work as a team. Visiting Angels do not just meet customer needs but aim to exceed them. They are different from the rest and you won't be disappointed.

I have had quite a lot of experience with care companies over the years with them helping to look after friends and relatives. Some of the companies have provided a reasonable service and others not so good.
What neither my friend nor I expected was the really high-class service provided by Visiting
Angels. From the very start, they were impressive and it continued until the end of my friend's life. It wasn't just the care that was first class, but also the management - even with a whiteboard showing them and us what was required that day.
The icing on the cake was the continuity of the care personnel and the fact that the managing director himself was heavily involved in the care process, ably assisted by another staff member in most cases. They both were extraordinarily caring and went way beyond what I would have expected. On one occasion I was with my friend in A & E and the managing director appeared, having heard that my friend was in hospital.
Without a doubt, Visiting Angels is a company that I happily recommend.

We were very impressed with the team at Visiting Angels who looked after our dad during his last weeks and helped him and us, his sons, navigate some extremely challenging situations. Visiting Angels provided professional and caring support to us all throughout. Our dedicated manager in particular went
above and beyond the call of duty on many occasions and I cannot praise her highly enough; truly an immensely caring and dedicated individual. I have no hesitation at all in recommending Visiting Angels as they deliver to an exceptionally high standard.

I contacted Visiting Angels to help me with my flat, filling any forms I needed to do, also helping me sort my finances. I found them online and spoke to a lovely man who arranged for one of the staff to come over and sort a care package. She found me a lovely lady who has been helping me sort my flat,
she has helped me with forms, and we also sorted through a care plan. Thank you for helping me.

I was very grateful and relieved to have found the excellent home-care team Visiting Angels. Their management and care workers live up to their name. My husband was bedridden when I sought help from Visiting Angels. I was impressed by the manager's initial visit to assess the situation as she made a
point of including my husband in the discussion which was very reassuring. This was in contrast to the two representatives of other care companies who talked over him or just nodded ‘hello’ and walked out of the bedroom.
Visiting Angels matched the carer to fit in with his needs and personality and tried to have the same team coming regularly. All the carers were kind and compassionate to my husband but also to everyone else in the family. They were also very supportive of me when my husband passed.
I would have no hesitation in recommending them to family or friends in need.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional service provided by Visiting Angels. From the moment we engaged with them, the team exhibited understanding, kindness and a sympathetic personal touch.
The manager and carers went above and beyond to ensure that our family's needs were met. Their
professionalism combined with patience, warmth and genuine compassion has set a standard that I have not come across before in other care agencies.
The dedication of the entire team is evident in the thoughtful and tailored approach they take to address individual needs. The managing director's hands-on involvement reflects his commitment to excellence.
I wholeheartedly recommend Visiting Angels to anyone seeking home help. Their exceptional service, made me breathe a sigh of relief when leaving my loved one in their hands.

I was at a very low ebb in my life having recently lost two close members of my family in quick succession. I have been suffering from poor health for many years and I felt like I was on the edge and in a very dark place. Despite taking a multitude of medication I decided to seek help with my personal
care because I was increasingly unable to do various simple day to day tasks.


I found a website online and filled out my details with little hope of a response. To my surprise I got a call from the manager at Visiting Angels Barnet. Although his care agency is private, and I was unable to afford his fees he nonetheless took time to speak to me. I also spoke to the care manager and they both promised to help me because they could see I had in effect 'fallen below the radar' within the system. Not long after speaking to them I got a call from my local social care team who wanted to carry out an assessment of my needs.


Subsequently, I received follow up calls from the manager at Visiting Angels Barnet to check on my health and to get an update with regards to my care. Again, they took time to listen to me and put me at ease by reassuring me that I should now get the help I needed. I could not thank them enough for all they had done for me because they went out of their way to help me. Thanks to them I am now getting the care I need from my local council in terms of a long-term care package and more recently the care manager has painstakingly went out of her way to ensure that I would shortly be contacted by an occupational therapist to assess whether I qualify for equipment in the home so as to make it easier to live my life.


I would like to say that very rarely has someone taken a genuine interest in my well-being and I am very grateful to Visiting Angels Barnet for that.


Finally, I would definitely recommend Visiting Angels Barnet to anyone looking for personal care.

My six month experience of Visiting Angels has been reliable, positive and enjoyable, They have cooked my main meal at midday five times each week and have done it well. They have also provided conversation and chitchat, which is valuable for those who live alone. I have always been shown courtesy and
kindness by the individuals I have met, who have all been trained to a high standard. They have been quick to learn how I like things cooked. I have already recommend Visiting Angels to friends in a similar position to myself.

We have had to get care for my dad after a fall and a fracture to the spine. We needed the extra support and it all happened very fast and we didn’t have a clue whom to approach. After getting contact details for Visiting Angels we were all out at rest with the care, the quality and accommodating us
almost last minute and attention to detail for what we required etc.
All the carers took amazing care of my dad and we and him were really happy with the service provided. We would definitely recommend this to anyone who needs the care and help.

Great service, lovely team, Mum was overly anxious approaching a care company but has been great so far 6 weeks in. She absolutely loves the carer, who's a bouncy ball of positive energy and cannot say enough good things.

I would like to thank Visiting Angels for their support in helping me to recover from a major operation back to full independence. From the get-go the can do attitude of the management team, their flexibility and brilliance in matching a carer to fit in with my needs and personality, was amazing. A
special thanks to my carer, who always went above and beyond to ensure my well-being and happiness. I would recommend her and the company to anyone seeking care.

Job Title: Managing Director

Joined: 2022

My personal experience of carers and caregiving, both good and bad, has made me realise how varied the level of care can be and how confusing and worrying it is for families just trying to do the best for their loved ones. I am committed to supporting those who need to make difficult decisions and helping them understand their entitlements and options so that they don’t repeat my experiences.


I am also committed to providing the best level of care, in the home, with great carers who are looked after and because of that provide continuity.


And that’s why, after a successful career in both big and small businesses, including my own, I decided to change direction and do something with Visiting Angels that is more than just a job and gives something back.


My hands-on role is to run and grow the business and make sure that Rosie and her team have what they need.


I’ll also be working closely with them to see where I can add to the quality of complete care we provide.
