Testimonials
"Recently within a period of increasing health and age related problems, my husband and I realised that if we wanted to stay in our much loved home and garden, we would need help to do so. How fortunate that I read about Graceful Care! Rose Cooper and her staff are the most wonderful caring folk who are helping us to stay in our home. They take the worries of domestic problems like continual laundry, cleaning and shopping off our minds. Nothing is too much trouble for them. They are family people who realise that "old age is no joke", but helping us with care makes it much easier. I recommend Rose and her staff at Graceful whole heartedly."
-- Mrs Cowling (St Heliers)

"We found Rose was capable, competent & caring. With Rose's great personality she made 'mum' feel at ease."

Service Description
My name is Rose. It has always been my passion to care for the elderly with my extensive nursing training based around Geriatric care. I have worked in Private & General Hospitals and have attained valuable experience, knowledge and understanding of the elderly. I have spent a great deal of time working with psychiatric geriatrics learning about and caring for people with Alzheimers and Dementia.

Wanting to make a real difference in the care and well being of the elderly, I chose to create a company that specializes in 'In-Home Care', a place where clients can be comfortable and familiar in their own surroundings.

It is important for myself and my valued staff at Graceful Care, that we take the time to listen, understand and assist our clients with their needs, whatever they may be.
Graceful Care also provides additional support and care for families and loved ones who are permanently in a Retirement Village, Rest Homes and other secure facilities.

At Graceful Care we offer:
-- Companionship
-- Showering/Bathing
-- Grocery Shopping
-- Domestic Cleaning
-- Light Exercises
-- Meal Preparation & Cooking
-- Any specialized/tailored plan to suit client needs.

I look forward to personally meeting with you or your loved one, please feel free to call me for a no obligation chat, or with a view to set up an appointment to create a service just right for you.

Kindest regards,
Rose
