Clarendon Home Care

Care should support independence - not take it away.

One of the things families often worry about when arranging care is whether their loved one will lose control of their daily life.

At Clarendon Home Care, our approach is very different.

We don’t arrive with rigid routines or prescriptive care plans. Instead, we work closely with the individual and their family to create support that fits around their life.

Every care plan is developed together and we always gain agreement before introducing any support.

Our carers are trained to encourage independence wherever possible. If someone can still prepare their own breakfast, make a cup of tea, or complete parts of their daily routine, we gently support them to continue doing so.

Because those small daily activities are often what maintain confidence, dignity and wellbeing.

This is one of the reasons many families choose home care rather than a care home. Support remains flexible and personalised rather than following institutional schedules.

We provide both home care visits and live-in care across:

📍 Kingston upon Thames
📍 Thames Ditton
📍 Cobham
📍 Molesey
📍 Egham
📍 Staines
📍 Sunbury
📍 Shepperton
📍 Ashford

Our carers can assist with companionship, meals, personal care, medication support, dementia care and full live-in care services.

If you’re exploring care for Mum or care for Dad, we’re always happy to talk through the options.

🐣 Happy Easter from all at Clarendon Home Care 🐣

Easter is a time for family, reflection and enjoying the simple comforts of home.

For many older people, being able to remain in their own home - surrounded by familiar routines, neighbours and memories - is incredibly important.

At Clarendon Home Care, our carers help make that possible.

Whether it’s a few hours of support each week or full live-in care, we help families ensure their loved ones can continue living safely and comfortably at home.

Our carers support with:

• Companionship and conversation
• Help preparing meals
• Personal care and daily routines
• Household help
• Specialist live-in care

We proudly support families across:

📍 Kingston upon Thames
📍 Thames Ditton
📍 Cobham
📍 Molesey
📍 Egham
📍 Staines
📍 Sunbury
📍 Shepperton
📍 Ashford

For families exploring care for Mum or care for Dad, home care can be a reassuring alternative to a care home - helping loved ones remain in the place they know and love.

If Easter has prompted you to think about support for a parent or relative, we’re always here to help.

“Marie gave Mum her independence back.” – Anna, Cobham

When my mum began to need more support, the thought of moving her into a care home felt overwhelming and wasnt a choice I willing to make, though I know it works for some. She had lived in Cobham for over 40 years, pottering in her garden, speaking to her neighbours, her routines meant everything to her.

That’s when my husband discovered live-in care and we chose Clarendon Home Care.

Marie came to live with Mum and quickly became part of the household. She helped with meals, her medication, shopping and all the little everyday things that were becoming difficult fo her. But more importantly, she brought warmth, patience and companionship.

As Mum would say about Marie:
“HAving her here makes me feel like myself again.”

For families searching for care for Mum or care for Dad, live-in care can be a reassuring alternative to a care home. It allows people to remain surrounded by the things they know and love while receiving dedicated support at home.

Clarendon provides live-in care and home care across Surrey, including Kingston upon Thames, Thames Ditton, Cobham, Molesey, Sunbury, Shepperton, Egham, Staines and Ashford.

For many families searching for care, live-in care offers something invaluable: dignity, familiarity and peace of mind.

The Story Behind Clarendon Home Care

Every care organisation starts somewhere. Ours began with one woman’s belief that older people deserve care that is personal, kind and genuinely human.

Our founder Jackie Jones began her career many years ago as what was then known as a “home help,” supporting older people in their homes with everyday tasks and companionship.

She later became a Care Manager for Richmond Council, but Jackie always believed care could be delivered in a more personal and compassionate way.

So she decided to strike out on her own.

Her mission was simple:
To build a care company that treated every client with respect, warmth and genuine understanding.

That mission became Clarendon Home Care.

Today we provide both private home care visits and live-in care, helping people stay independent in the homes they love.

Our carers support with:

• Companionship and social visits
• Meal preparation and help around the home
• Personal care and daily routines
• Dementia support
• Flexible home care visits
• Full-time live-in care

We proudly support families across:

📍 Kingston upon Thames
📍 Thames Ditton
📍 Cobham
📍 Molesey
📍 Egham
📍 Staines
📍 Sunbury
📍 Shepperton
📍 Ashford

For families further afield, we also provide live-in care across a wider area.

Jackie’s commitment to improving care has even been recognised with a Surrey Care Award.

But what matters most to us is what families say about our carers every day - that they bring kindness, reassurance and genuine companionship into people’s homes.

If you’re considering care for yourself or a loved one, our friendly team would be happy to help.

What makes a truly great care worker?

It’s a question many families ask when they start thinking about care at home.

At Clarendon Home Care, we believe great carers combine professional skill with genuine kindness and compassion. They understand that care is about much more than practical help - it’s about building trust, bringing reassurance and helping people maintain their independence.

One of our clients recently told us:

"My carer brightens my whole week. It’s like having a friend visit really."

Even a couple of hours of support each week can make a huge difference - whether that’s companionship, help preparing meals, assistance around the home or simply knowing someone reliable is checking in.

We proudly support families across:

📍 Kingston upon Thames
📍 Thames Ditton
📍 Cobham
📍 Molesey
📍 Egham
📍 Staines
📍 Sunbury
📍 Shepperton
📍 Ashford

We also provide live-in care across a much wider area for those who need more comprehensive support.

Many people think home care is only needed when someone requires full-time support.

But the truth is, just a couple of hours of help each week can make a huge difference.

At Clarendon Home Care, we support people with the everyday things that help life run smoothly - preparing meals, light housekeeping, help getting ready for the day, companionship, or simply a friendly visit and conversation.

These small visits can:

✔ Help people stay independent for longer
✔ Reduce loneliness and isolation
✔ Maintain routines and confidence at home
✔ Give families valuable peace of mind

Over time, our carers often become familiar and trusted faces, building genuine relationships with the people they support.

We provide visiting home care across:

📍 Kingston upon Thames
📍 Thames Ditton
📍 Cobham
📍 Molesey
📍 Egham
📍 Staines
📍 Sunbury
📍 Shepperton
📍 Ashford

For those who need more comprehensive support, we also provide live-in care across a much wider area, allowing people to receive 24-hour care while remaining in the comfort of their own home.

Care doesn’t need to be complicated. Sometimes a little help at the right time is all that’s needed to make life easier and safer.

Loneliness isn’t just sadness - it hurts. In the UK nearly 1 in 14 people aged 65+ feel often lonely and hundreds of thousands go a week without speaking to family or friends. For those who’ve lost a partner or struggle with mobility, it’s all too easy to go days without a meaningful conversation.

Many older people hide it. They smile for family photos, they reassure loved ones they’re “fine”, and they mask the real impact of isolation on confidence and wellbeing.

This is where Clarendon Home Care makes a difference. Picture a warm knock at the door - a friendly carer in uniform holding a nice cup of tea and a genuine smile. That moment of connection, shared laughter, a little gossip, or a chat about the day’s news - it’s pure joy and it matters. Our compassionate carers bring companionship, confidence, and dignity into every visit.

Proudly serving Surrey: Thames Ditton, Cobham, Kingston upon Thames, Staines upon Thames, Sunbury upon Thames, Walton upon Thames, Molesey, Ashford (Surrey), and Shepperton. Founded by a former carer and trusted for 35 years, we know real care is about connection.

Many people think home care is only needed when things become complicated or when someone requires full-time support.

In reality, just a couple of hours of help at home each week can make a huge difference.

At Clarendon Home Care, we often support people with the simple things that help life run smoothly - preparing a meal, a bit of light housekeeping, help getting ready in the morning or simply sharing a cup of tea and some conversation.

Those small visits can have a big impact. They help people stay independent, maintain their routines and continue enjoying the comfort of their own home.

For families, even a little support can bring something incredibly valuable: peace of mind. Knowing that a friendly, professional carer is checking in regularly can make all the difference.

Our carers become familiar faces that clients look forward to seeing each week. Over time, many families tell us their carer feels like an extended part of the household — and that’s exactly how we like it.

Care doesn’t have to be complicated. Sometimes a small amount of support at the right time is all that’s needed to make life easier.

“Are we doing the right thing?”

It’s the question families ask most when care becomes part of the conversation.

Live-in care isn’t always the first option people think of - care homes tend to dominate the discussion. But here’s what families tell us after making the switch:

✔ Mum hasn’t slept this well in years - because she feels safe.
✔ Dad hasn’t missed his garden, his chair, his morning paper.
✔ We’re not constantly on alert anymore.

Some overlooked benefits of live-in care:

• 24/7 presence means genuine peace of mind - for everyone.
• No packed suitcases. No leaving pets behind.
• Meals, hobbies and routines stay familiar.
• One consistent carer builds real trust and understanding.
• Support can flex day by day - not by appointment slots.

It may sound unusual at first - someone living in your home. But what’s more unusual is how quickly it starts to feel completely natural.

All that’s needed is a spare room. The rest is reassurance, dignity, and the comfort of home.

If you’ve been quietly worrying about what the next step looks like - let’s talk. Call us now on 0208 439 772 - all care starts with a conversation.
