What Our Clients Say
I cannot thank Caribbean Home Help enough for the professional care and great kindness shown to my relatives and to my family. Without them, I think I would truly have had a breakdown.
I would recommend Caribbean Home Help to anyone looking for a superb support system in terms of giving excellent care to their loved ones. At a time when we were at a crossroads not knowing where to go and what to expect they were there to guide us, giving us that personable reassurance that we would not have to go the journey alone. Both management and staff have been very supportive and have provided excellent care.
The Caribbean Home Help team responded promptly to our urgent needs to provide nursing care for our Mother. The team cleaned the entire home and made Mum feel comfortable. They took good care of Mum, transporting her to the doctor and taking care of her daily needs. They respond quickly and keep you informed, we really appreciated this. I would definitely recommend their team."
