Visiting Care in Kent
Thoughtful support at home
shaped by what matters to you
What is Visiting Care?
Visiting care, sometimes called daily care or domiciliary care, is support provided in the comfort of your own home. From help with getting ready in the morning to making sure you stay safe and connected, our visiting care service offers reliable, consistent support exactly when it’s needed. Visits can be arranged from just one hour a day, and every plan is tailored to the individual, providing the right amount of support without disrupting independence or routine.
Why Choose Visiting Care?
Choosing our Visiting Care service means choosing a more thoughtful, personalised approach to support at home.
We focus on enhancing quality of life and social wellbeing, not just day to day needs. We pay close attention to the small details because it’s often the little things that make the biggest difference, and we take the time to get them right.
Our holistic approach to care brings together practical support with emotional connection and meaningful companionship, building genuine relationships that people can rely on.
Above all, we respect independence, shaping our support around individual routines and preferences so that it always feels like a natural enhancement to life, never an imposition.

"Julie always knows how to make me laugh. She is helpful, kind and caring, and we go to different places together. I always feel better after we've spent time together, and having her support has made such a difference to my life."
Anne (Client)

"Incredible service - a company that truly cares about their customers. Agota (from Thrive) always responds quickly to any queries and is so empathetic with clients, going above and beyond every time. She really takes time to get to know people and explore their individual needs and interests. Her comprehensive knowledge of the care system is invaluable. I would not hesitate to recommend her."

"I couldn’t speak more highly of Georgina from Thrive. She is just great, she's always the same, enthusiastic and caring, always very helpful. I couldn't ask for anybody more caring, kind and professional."
Joy (Wife of client)
Canterbury
“I am very happy with the services that the girls from Thrive Homecare are providing for me.”
Andrea (Client)
Canterbury
"My mother has recently started receiving support from Thrive Home Care, and our experience has been extremely positive. Mum is 95 and living with dementia. She lives alone and has always been fiercely independent, with little awareness of her need for support. From the first meeting, Emma built a natural rapport with Mum, which was incredibly reassuring. Emma currently visits once a week, with plans to increase support over time."
Barry (Son of client)
Whitstable
“From the moment I met my consultant, Agota, I felt very at ease and comfortable. She explained everything clearly and helped me understand how Thrive could support me. My companion helps me with shopping trips and attending medical appointments. I would highly recommend this service to anyone in a similar situation to mine.”
