Warm, dependable support at home for the life your loved one knows.
Live-In Care in Peacehaven
Home care that brings stability, comfort, and peace of mind
When families in Peacehaven begin looking into live-in care, they are usually looking for more than practical help. They want to know their loved one feels safe, known, and genuinely cared for in the home they love.
That is the kind of care Cheriton Homecare was built to provide. Our founder Richard Barnett spent 12 years caring personally for his grandfather Bill through Alzheimer’s. That experience is woven into everything we do: the way we match carers, the way we stay involved, and the way we treat every person we support as an individual.
As a CQC-regulated provider rated Outstanding in Caring, we offer fully managed live-in care with the oversight and consistency that families rely on.

Live-in care vs. 24-Hour care: Understanding the difference
Live-in care and 24-hour care describe the same kind of arrangement. One carer lives in your loved one’s home, providing support throughout the day and taking a planned break to sleep at night.
Visiting care involves multiple carers calling at set times. This suits clients who are fairly independent and need occasional help rather than someone consistently present.
How much should you expect live-in care to cost?
The cost depends on how much support your loved one needs each day and whether care is for one person or a couple. We are transparent about pricing from the outset.
- Live-in care is charged weekly
- Prices start from £1,190 per week for one person
- Prices start from £1,476 per week for couples
- Fees cover full-time, one-to-one support from a live-in carer who stays in the home

What families often want to know before making a decision
Is live-in care suitable for someone who wants to stay independent at home?
Yes. Our carers support people in the way they choose to live, stepping in when help is needed and stepping back when it is not. Independence and dignity sit at the heart of how we work.
Can a live-in carer support couples living together?
Absolutely. We provide live-in care for couples, with support shaped around both people and how they live together at home.
How do you create a care plan that feels personal rather than routine?
We take time to get to know your loved one before care begins: their daily rhythms, their preferences, and what matters most to them. Everything is built around their life.
What kinds of home setups work best for live-in care?
Live-in care works in most home settings. The main practical need is a comfortable private space for the carer. We are happy to talk through any questions about your loved one’s home when we speak.
Can care start gently and increase as more support is needed?
Yes. We adjust the level of support as your loved one’s needs change, so there is no need to find a new provider or start again as circumstances evolve.
If caring at home is starting to feel overwhelming, we're here to help
You should not have to carry this alone. At Cheriton Homecare, we offer clear, honest guidance and fully managed care that brings real relief to the whole family.
