A Legacy of Family Care

Since 1968 Gardiner's Homecare has been dedicated to providing exceptional homecare, establishing ourselves as the the leading provider in Berkshire and South Oxfordshire. As an independent, family-run agency our core values of compassion and reliability have remained steadfast for over 57 years. 

We are driven by our commitment to excellence in care. Our compassionate team consists entirely of local carers who've been with us for nearly a decade on average—creating meaningful relationships that provide not just consistency, but genuine companionship throughout your care journey.

The qualities that set us apart are:

  • Our Unrivalled Reputation: We are consistently recognized as the top-rated care provider in the Reading area, a testament to the hundreds of heartfelt testimonials from the families we've had the privilege to support.
  • Our Exceptional Care Team: We have meticulously built a team of highly qualified, deeply compassionate, and truly committed care professionals from our local community. By valuing their dedication with industry-leading compensation and benefits, we attract and retain the best carers.
  • Our Personal Connection: We understand the importance of connection in great care. We assign a regular carer to each visit so you always know who's coming, and with a minimum 1 hour visit time our carers develop real relationships and trust with your family.

“Would recommend Gardiner's, they provided good care for my wife at all times. We have now moved out of the area and hope our new care provider can match Gardiner's quality, care and support. Gardiner's provided care to my wife for over 2 years.”

Donald D (Husband of Client)

“I really appreciated how responsive Gardiners was. Being in touch immediately when I put my enquiry in was so helpful. We were ready to go so quickly and with the thorough set-up done by one of the staff, everything worked really well. My relative felt well cared for and we all appreciated how responsive Gardiners was to our situation.”

Jo B (Daughter of Client)

“We were very happy with the care the team at Gardiners provided for my Mum. The carers were really supportive and my mum came to regard several as friends. They not only gave my mum the physical care she needed to remain in her home for as long as possible but their friendly and cheerful visits really brightened her days. I would definitely recommend Gardiners to anyone looking for carers.”

Kate B (Daughter of Client)

“We, as a family, were so pleased with the care and friendship that the ladies that attended our dad provided. He so enjoyed their company. Just having a chat meant so much to him. Thank you so much to all those involved with our lovely dad.”

Gillian W (Daughter of Client)

“From the assessment through to the care given my mother was treated as an individual with respect and dignity from the Gardiner's team. The carer assigned to Mum was professional at all times and documented daily activities of Mum's in the communication book clearly and with knowledge. I would have no hesitation in recommending Gardiner's to anyone.”

Jennifer N (Daughter of Client)

“Since engaging Gardners in April 2021 to provide care for my brother I found that all aspects of their service overall was excellent. In particular the quality and performance of all the staff involved. The difficulties of dealing with him increasingly became so and I fully appreciated what these difficulties caused them.”

Martyn B (Brother of Client)

“We were very impressed with the service provided for my mother. All the carers were friendly, patient, professional and very respectful We were also impressed with the admin service provided when arranging the hours required. We would have no hesitation in recommending Gardiners Homecare to anyone needing carer support.”

Sarah E (Daughter of Client)

“I was looking for care for my Aunt and found Gardiners on the internet. From the first meeting with the client manager, the assessment and the care given they were extremely professional always helpful and offered superb service.”
