Live-in Care in Abbey Wood and South London
A dedicated carer living in your loved one’s home, providing round-the-clock support, companionship, and peace of mind.
Sometimes a few hours of care a day isn’t enough. Your loved one needs someone there – not just for the practical tasks, but for the reassurance that comes from knowing help is always close by.
Live-in care means a dedicated, trained carer moves into your loved one’s home and provides continuous support throughout the day and night. Your loved one stays in their own home, in their own bed, surrounded by their own things. They keep their routines, their pets, their neighbours. They just have someone there to help.
For many families, live-in care is a more personal, more affordable, and more dignified alternative to a care home – especially for couples who want to stay together.
What We Provide
24-Hour Presence
A carer in the home throughout the day and night. Not shift workers passing through – one person who knows your loved one.
All Personal Care
Washing, dressing, medication, meal preparation, mobility support – everything covered by one consistent carer.
Companionship
Conversation, shared meals, walks in the garden, watching television together. The simple things that make a home feel like a home.
Night Support
Assistance during the night for toileting, repositioning, or reassurance. Your loved one is never alone.
Household Management

End of Life Support
Compassionate, dignified support in the final stages of life, allowing your loved one to remain at home.
Our Approach
Carefully matched carers for your family
We carefully match each live-in carer to your family based on personality, interests, and care needs – not just availability. Before the placement begins, the carer visits your loved one’s home to meet them and understand their routine. Our registered nurse reviews the care plan. And throughout the placement, you can see daily updates, care notes, and medication records on the family app.
Stay connected through the family app
Know when your carer arrives. Read care notes after every visit. See every medication confirmed. The AB Care family app keeps you in the picture without you having to chase anyone for updates.
