| I've found that Driving Miss Daisy has been a caring, reliable taxi service for me with hospital, physio and Resthome visits to my husband. I don't drive and am learning to walk properley after a major foot operation. Extra care and help is given for older people to get in and out of the taxi.
Joy, Petone Thank you to you and your team for the caring help I received when I was unwell. I would recommend your team to any one and in fact have done so. See you all again, Catriona, Havelock North My father, who is 84 and has lost his licence, could not get by without the wonderful, caring services of Driving Miss Daisy, Havelock North. I just ring them up and they deliver Dad to the hospital or my house or his snooker club. They know him by name and he is very comfortable travelling with them. Barb, Havelock North With my mother having no family living in New Zealand the services of Driving Miss Daisy Upper Hutt have enabled her to do the basic duties of banking and minor shopping without feeling a burden on other people. Not only has Driving Miss Daisy helped my mother, it has given her family overseas great peace of mind. Trudy, Melbourne I'm finding I want to be more independent, then by chance I found out about Melanie and Driving Miss Daisy. I needed to get to the airport, but hiring a taxi was out of the question due to cost, so I tried her service. She arrived promptly with a lovely smile, and was helpful with my luggage. There was no rush or panic, and her confidence made me feel all was well! Because of her efficiency and caring manner I arrived at the airport looking forward to the adventure of my travel. Melanie is caring, likeable and approachable. Mrs Scott, Havelock North Melanie always greets me with a happy welcoming smile. She helps me with my wheelchair and puts it in the car, remembering to close the door for me! She has taken me to the doctor, to town and art days. I have always found Driving Miss Daisy to be on time and reliable with considered communication about arrangements for my return home. Deirdre, Havelock North As a client of Melanie's I can fully recommend it. I was driven to Napier to attend a school reunion and was helped into the comfortable, late model car. I felt secure knowing that Melanie is a safe, efficient driver. When my husband and I planned a flight to Auckland Melanie called for us, cheerfully helping with luggage both at home and at the airport, saving us any stress. We couldn't have wished for better service at such a competitive price. Phyllis, Havelock North |
