Meet the Cambridge care team
Area Care Manager
Hi, I am Christien Ingrosso and I'm the Area Care Manager for the South East region. As an area care manager, it is my role to lead a team of dedicated care experts in and around the London, Essex and South East region to ensure that the service and care we are delivering is to the highest possible standard for all our customers. I am married and a father of two girls. I enjoy very much spending time with my family and going on walks with my dog, or as some may say he likes to walk me! I have been fortunate enough to meet some fantastic employees throughout my time at Helping Hands. Each day I witness first-hand the determination and drive that each and all of our carers show to help our customers maintain healthy and independent lives in the familiar surroundings of their own homes.

Other care we provide
Home care Cambridge - tailored to suit you
Since our inception in 1989, we’ve paved the way for person-centred home care in Cambridge and supported thousands of individuals across England and Wales to live independently in their homes. With visiting care from Melanie and her team, we ensure that you have the support you need to live your life entirely on your terms, with no compromise to your safety or independence.
With experience in dealing with conditions ranging from Parkinson’s and motor neurone disease to arthritis and mental health, our Cambridge team will support you with anything you need, whether that’s personal care, household cleaning, meal preparation or taking you out into your local community.
With visits starting from as little as 30 minutes to more regular, overnight support, we’ll work with you to build a personalised support plan that takes your needs and preferences into account. So whether you need practical support with your personal care or simply a companion to walk along the River Cam and watch the punting with, we’ll be there for you.
High quality live in care
We understand how important it is for you to feel safe in your own home, but when you’re experiencing difficulty with your mobility or have recently had a fall that has disrupted your normal routine, live-in care in Cambridge could be the ideal solution to bring comfort to you and your family.
Helping Hands provide live-in care in Cambridge, supporting you with the care you need in the familiarity of your own home. Our compassionate team of carers provide support 24 hours a day.

Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency In Cambridge
When it comes to providing dedicated, compassionate home care, Helping Hands is a better choice than a care agency because we truly value our carers. We recognise that they truly are the heart and soul of our business, and we make absolutely sure that they’re properly looked after and are always energised and equipped to provide you with exceptional care each and every day.
Unlike most care agencies, we employ and pay our carers directly. Every carer receives our award-winning training, as well as being given further training and development opportunities.
Partnering with a private care provider also means that you won’t receive any hidden costs or surprise fees – our upfront fees are very transparent and straightforward, and we won’t ask you to handle mountains of unwanted paperwork and administration.
Respite care Cambridge
Taking care of a loved one is one of the most rewarding jobs there is, but it’s important that you take time for yourself to have some rest and recuperation – especially if you’re caring for your loved one alongside your children or with work duties.
With respite care in Cambridge from Melanie and her team, we’ll provide a personalised package of care that allows you to get some time to yourself to recharge your batteries, whilst knowing that the person you love is still receiving high-quality care. With a seamless transition between carers, our dedicated Cambridge team will work with you and your loved ones to ensure that they follow your routines so that there is minimal disruption to the care provided.
Respite care is also available if you need some support for a break away, you are recovering from a spell in hospital or there is a family celebration that you’d like to attend but you don’t feel safe going alone. Whatever it is you need, we’ll be there to ensure that you have the support you need, for as long as you need it.
