Home care in Sittingbourne
Visiting care and home care in Sittingbourne
Rising to prominence after the death of Thomas Becket in 1170, because it provided a convenient resting place on the road from London to Canterbury and Dover, Sittingbourne is an industrial town, 45 miles from London, beside an ancient British trackway used by the Romans and the Anglo-Saxons called the Roman Watling Street. Farming and trading have been in the area since before 2000 BC, so the area has a rich heritage, yet still has plenty to offer the modern visitor.
Already established in the Kent area, Helping Hands have been offering exceptional home care for more than 30 years. We decided it was time to explore the county further though, which is why we are now offering our services in Sittingbourne. Fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales, our visiting and live-in care is industry-leading.

Meet the Sittingbourne 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
High quality home care in Sittingbourne
Visiting care means that your carer will come as often as you need them at prearranged times, whether that’s for an hour a day to make you breakfast or throughout the day to support more complex needs. They’ll help you with housework, meal preparation, medication, mobility support, and so much more, as well as supporting you to make the most of your local area. Our main focus is to keep you independent in your own home, a value that hasn’t changed since we first began.
24/7 live in care support
Having someone living in your home with you is a great reassurance to both you and your loved ones that you’re never alone. Live-in care is special because it offers another level of support – your carer will be with you around the clock to support you with your daily routine. Our carers are carefully trained and assessed to ensure that they have all the necessary skills to care for you, meaning you have someone there who will help you remain independent and comfortable in the home you love.
Why Helping Hands is better than a care agency in Sittingbourne
A traditional care agency will only act as a introductory service – locating you a carer and then leaving you both to work out the details and conditions of employment. Helping Hands has never been an agency; we’re a private home care company that sources, recruits, trains, and employs our own carers, wanting to keep it in-house so that we can be sure of consistency in everything we do. Let us handle all of the arrangements so that you can focus on what’s important – your wellbeing.
Qualified carers providing a variety of care services in Sittingbourne
We’ve gone from strength to strength since we were established in 1989, growing to 150 branches across England and Wales. Our carers are selected by us because they are exceptional people who care about keeping people safe and comfortable at home, promoting their independence at all times. We build on their skills and offer opportunities for development so that our carers are always at the forefront of industry developments, and we encourage development if they wish to do so. We’re proud that many of our managers began as carers with us too.
