You choose the person. We do the difficult part.
You shouldn't have to become a recruitment expert to find someone you trust in your home. We handle the searching, screening, vetting and matching — and you remain in control of the final decision.

You don't need another pile of CVs.
You need someone who fits.
Traditional recruitment usually begins with a CV and ends with an interview. But when someone is going to live in your home, that is only part of the decision. A CV cannot tell you how a person behaves under pressure, whether they take initiative, respect boundaries or fit comfortably into your household.

We screen for the things a CV can't tell you.
Professional competence
Relevant experience, qualifications and previous placements.
Reliability
Consistency, references and professional conduct.
Communication
How candidates communicate, listen and respond.
Attitude
Professionalism, initiative, boundaries and respect.
Personality
How they may fit the client's environment and expectations.
Lifestyle compatibility
Whether their working style suits the realities of live-in work.
We don't believe every carer is right for every client.
A highly experienced carer can still be the wrong person for a particular household. Equally, the perfect candidate may be someone whose strengths only become obvious when we understand the client properly.
Our screening process may include
- Identity verification
- Right-to-work checks where applicable
- Employment checks
- References
- Qualification checks where relevant
- Experience review
- Interview
- Communication assessment
- Reliability assessment
- Professional conduct assessment
- Household suitability
- Availability and placement expectations
This describes the process we intend to follow. The checks completed for any individual candidate are confirmed to you case by case.
A candidate can look perfect on paper.
