Live-In Care in Leicester
Yes, NeeryVille Care provides live-in care in Leicester and across the city, including Highfields, Clarendon Park, Stoneygate, Knighton, Evington and Belgrave. A trained, DBS-checked carer moves in with your relative, stays by day and by night, and so a morning at the market, an hour in Abbey Park or a call to an old friend carries on as before. The same carer stays on, learns how the household runs, and ringing us first commits you to nothing.
When a discharge from the Leicester Royal Infirmary starts to be mentioned on the ward, ring us at once. We can speak to the staff, then line up a carer, a heated house and a calm first evening before the transport arrives. Waiting for the day itself seldom goes well, so please call first.
The Leicester Royal Infirmary is the largest of the three hospitals run by University Hospitals of Leicester, so a long stay after a fall is not unusual. Ring 0208 129 5854 and we will go over it with you, under no obligation.

Live-In Care at Home in Leicester: Park Benches, Market Mornings and Old Stories
Picture a woman of eighty-four who has bought her vegetables at Leicester Market since she was a girl. Her legs tire quickly now, but on Saturday her carer orders a taxi, steadies her over the kerb and lets her choose, stall by stall, exactly what goes in the bag. The market is described as the largest outdoor covered market in Europe, and she still insists the best apples are on the third row.
Want Saturdays like that for someone you love? Telephone us and we will book a free assessment.
Such Saturdays rest on ordinary weekdays, which is why it helps to see what a live-in carer does between the first cup of tea and the last tablet of the night.
An Unhurried Morning
Nobody needs to be dressed before the carer has put the kettle on. Your relative gets up when they are ready, and breakfast is made the way they have had it for years.
Time in the Park
Abbey Park lies on the site of Leicester Abbey, where Cardinal Wolsey died in 1530. The carer brings a flask and a blanket, finds a seat in the shade and walks back whenever your relative says so.
Tablets and Appointments
Each dose is given on time and written down. For an outpatient visit to the Leicester Royal Infirmary, the carer goes along, hears what the doctor says and tells the family afterwards.
Meals Made to Taste
Meals follow dietary advice and old favourites alike. If your relative likes to pick things out, a trip to the market comes first and the shopping turns into supper.
Company and Conversation
Age UK Leicester Shire and Rutland runs memory cafes and social groups through its free Dementia Support Service. The carer rings to find out what is on this month, arranges the lift and sits beside your relative throughout.
Steady on the Stairs
Terraced houses and flats often come with narrow stairs and awkward steps. The carer helps with every transfer, keeps floors clear and warns the family early if the layout is becoming unsafe.

Why Leicester Families Turn to NeeryVille Care
Look for live-in care in Leicester and you find a franchise office, a national provider and a firm that groups the city with Oadby and Wigston. Across the three we read, none named the Leicester Royal Infirmary, none named Leicester City Council, and two printed no daily price. Our page names both the hospital and the council, shows the rate, and puts a single employed carer in the house. These are the reasons Leicester families choose us.
One carer, every day
Meeting the same face at breakfast counts for more than people expect. The carer learns the preferred cup, the station the radio is tuned to and when your relative would rather be left in peace.
Our same-carer approach rests on this idea, and it helps most when someone has dementia and finds a familiar person easier to trust than a changing cast.
Leave within 14 days
If the care is not right at any moment in the first 14 days, it can stop straight away, with no notice period and no fee.
The 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee exists for exactly this, so a Leicester family can try live-in care without being locked in.
Employed by us
We are a Care Quality Commission registered provider. Every carer works for us directly, with our training and our supervision, rather than arriving through a self-employed introduction. Our registration on the CQC website can be checked by anyone before they ring.
Led by clinicians
Each placement sits inside a clinical governance framework run by experienced clinicians, which keeps care for dementia, Parkinson’s disease or stroke recovery steady from week to week.
Home within a day or two
A homecoming from the Leicester Royal Infirmary can be planned fast. Once we have met, a matched carer can usually be at the house in a day or two and sleeps there too. Let us know the minute a date is mentioned and we will plan the first evening together.
Managed by a Registered Manager
Daniel Johnson, our Registered Care Manager, brings twelve years in care and specialist dementia training, and he looks after each placement himself. Phone us and you get him or a colleague on his team.

Respite Care in Leicester, Dementia and Stroke Recovery: When Does a Family Need a Live-In Carer?
Rarely does one single thing tip the balance. A live-in carer is worth thinking about when your relative needs company and help in the night as well as the day, and is firm about staying in their own house.
Imagine a man of seventy-eight who has a stroke, spends several weeks on a ward at the Leicester Royal Infirmary, and returns with a weak right arm. He used to garden, cook and carry the washing upstairs without a second thought. Now each job is a hazard, and his daughter hears about the near misses days later. A live-in carer who helps on the stairs, in the kitchen and with the exercises the therapists set can make that homecoming the start of a recovery. If that sounds familiar, call us today rather than after another fall.
During the assessment we ask him which hours of the day he values most, then build the plan around that.
If you are the one who has been holding everything together and badly needs a rest, live-in respite care in Leicester lets you step away while a trusted carer takes over at home.
Conditions Our Carers Support Around Leicester
Our live-in carers in Leicester support people living with dementia, recovering from a stroke, or living with Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, cancer and reduced mobility, in LE1 to LE5 and across Leicester.
If your loved one has a condition that is not listed, please
call us on
0208 129 5854.
Usually we can still help, and we will tell you plainly if we cannot.
If the need is mostly at night, our overnight care may suit better.
Staying Together at Home: Couples in Leicester
Imagine a couple in their late eighties in a Victorian terrace in Highfields. He has Parkinson’s disease and she has early dementia, and the front steps and steep stairs are becoming harder each month. They bought the house when their children were small and will not hear of moving.
A single live-in carer can look after them both, helping him on the steps, sitting with her and cooking one meal for two. Ask us about a plan for the two of them.

Why Leicester Families Pick Live-In Care at Home Over a Care Home
If your father has lived in the same Leicester street for fifty years, live-in care in Leicester lets him stay there, with a kind person always nearby.
The city has been settled since Roman times, chose its first mayor in 1251 and won back city status in 1919, so older residents have watched many chapters of it unfold. Staying among familiar roads keeps those chapters close.
Staying put means your relative keeps a familiar bed, familiar cupboards and a familiar day. A single carer moves in and picks up their habits, so the same face greets them at breakfast and says goodnight, and a husband and wife can share one carer.
The Leicester Royal Infirmary is the largest of the three hospitals run by University Hospitals of Leicester, so a bad fall can mean weeks there, and a carer under the same roof deals with the little night-time worries. On the way home the same carer is waiting, ready with the stairs, the shopping and the tablets.
To talk it over with a real person, ring 0208 129 5854 and ask us anything, without obligation.
What Live-In Care in Leicester Costs Per Day, Stated Plainly
Asking about price should not feel awkward, so here is the figure.
Live-in care with NeeryVille in Leicester starts from £190 per day, fully inclusive. No hidden fees, no extra charges.
The free assessment ends with that figure written down, before you agree to anything.
What the Daily Rate Covers
A Leicester week might include a Saturday at the market, a slow loop of Abbey Park and a call to the Age UK Dementia Support Service about the next memory cafe. The daily rate buys a carer who lives in and is around at any hour, covering washing and dressing, home cooking, medicines given and recorded, steady help indoors and company at appointments.
If needs go further, such as dementia care at home, live-in care for a couple or recovery after an operation, the price is settled after we meet. Describe the situation and we will tell you what we would recommend.
Funding Care at Home in Leicester
Not sure where to begin? Call us on 0208 129 5854 to discuss your loved one’s care needs and we will go through the possibilities. Ask too whether NHS Continuing Healthcare might apply, since it can meet the cost of care when the main need is a health one.
Leicester City Council lists adult social care on 0116 454 1004, and its page of organisations that can help with information and advice is a useful signpost for families.
Age UK Leicester Shire and Rutland offers free information and advice on 0116 299 2278, 9am to 1pm Monday to Thursday, and the line can be busy, so leave a message if needed. Its free Dementia Support Service on 0116 223 7363 gives one-to-one support to people living with dementia and to their carers.
A carer does not need to wait for the paperwork to be finished.
Wondering what the total comes to?
Starting Live-In Care in Leicester
Families often say that picking up the phone is the hard bit. Beyond it lie four short stages.
01
First, the call
You do not need to prepare anything first.
Telephone 0208 129 5854 and Daniel Johnson or a colleague will answer.
Describe what is happening at home and we will think it through together, with no forms and no pressure.
Setting up live-in care is ordinary daily work for our team.
03
Then, their story
We enjoy hearing what Leicester has meant to them. It might be the day in 2015 when Richard III was reburied in the cathedral, or an evening on the Golden Mile at Diwali, which is said to bring the largest celebrations outside the Indian subcontinent.
Each memory is added to the care plan, so the carer can raise it when it will lift the mood. Ring when you are ready.
Next, the carer
We look at medical needs and temperament together, then pick the carer most likely to fit in with the household.
With the 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee, the opening fortnight is yours to judge.
02
04
Finally, the move-in
Many carers start within a day or two of the assessment, sooner if a discharge is near.
When your relative is leaving the Leicester Royal Infirmary, the carer is timed to meet them at the door.
A single named contact at NeeryVille stays with you from first call until care has settled.
Phone us and a carer might be unpacking at your relative’s house within days. Once the Leicester Royal Infirmary names a discharge day, give it to us and we will plan backwards from it.
The free assessment is done in person by our Registered Care Manager, who stays in touch once the carer has settled in. Live-in care is our daily work.

Neeryville Care - Compassionate Home Care You Can Trust
Live-In Care in Leicester: Straight Answers on Carers, Dementia and Respite
How much does live-in care in Leicester cost?
The cost of live-in care from NeeryVille Care in Leicester is £190 per day, fully inclusive, and nothing is added later. You receive the figure in writing after the free assessment.
How quickly can live-in care start in Leicester?
Normally within a day or two of the assessment, whether the request comes from home or from a ward at the Leicester Royal Infirmary. The assessment is booked with one phone call.
Do you provide live-in care for people with dementia?
Yes. Familiar rooms and one regular carer help a person with dementia hold on to a settled routine. In the city, the Age UK Dementia Support Service on 0116 223 7363 gives one-to-one help to people with dementia and to those who care for them.
Is live-in care better than a care home?
That choice belongs to your family. Staying home means keeping a familiar bed, a familiar day and one carer, and couples are not separated. We talk through the practical side before you decide anything.
What happens if my carer is ill or on holiday?
If the usual carer is unwell or on leave, a cover carer steps in, so your relative is never alone in the house.
Is NeeryVille Care regulated by the CQC?
Yes. NeeryVille Care Ltd holds a Care Quality Commission registration, and the entry is open to view on the CQC provider page.
Which areas of Leicester do you cover?
We cover Leicester city centre, Highfields, Clarendon Park, Stoneygate, Knighton, Evington, Belgrave and Aylestone, across Leicester (LE1 to LE5).
Do you offer respite care in Leicester?
Yes, respite care in Leicester is something we offer. When you care for someone and need a proper rest, a live-in carer can take over in their home for a few days, a few weeks or longer.
Can you support a hospital discharge?
Yes. A carer can be at the house to welcome your relative back from the Leicester Royal Infirmary, with the heating on and a first meal prepared.
What is the 14-Day Live Well at Home Guarantee?
Should the care not feel right during the first 14 days, you can end it immediately, with no notice period and no fee.
How do I pay, and can I get funding?
Payment is by Bank Transfer or Direct Debit only. You may qualify for NHS Continuing Healthcare or an assessment through Leicester City Council, and Age UK Leicester Shire and Rutland can advise on benefits and money matters.
Can a live-in carer take my father to see the Jewry Wall?
Yes. The Jewry Wall survives from the 2nd century baths of Ratae Corieltauvorum, the Roman town that grew into Leicester. The carer checks current access, plans the trip, gives him an arm along the paths and looks for a seat when he tires.
Could my mother still shop at Leicester Market?
Yes, if she enjoys it. The market is described as the largest outdoor covered market in Europe, so we suggest a quieter hour. The carer travels with her, carries the bags and lets her pick her own fruit and vegetables, then helps to cook them at home.
Is the Golden Mile at Diwali too much for an older relative?
Belgrave Road’s Golden Mile is the centre of Leicester’s Diwali celebrations, said to be the largest outside the Indian subcontinent. A live-in carer can plan a daytime visit away from the evening crowds, or plan a calm evening at home and describe the lights afterwards.
