Friendly, reliable companionship to help you feel supported, valued, and connected.

I offer regular companionship, home visits and outings aimed at improving your emotional well-being.

An enjoyable time, something to look forward to, and reassurance for your carer that you’re spending time with someone kind and supportive.

What is befriending?

A valuable service aimed at anyone who would benefit from regular social visits aimed at combating loneliness or social isolation. A regular friendly face to boost your mood, encourage independence and have fun with. 

What I Offer

Visits usually take the form of 2 hours, either weekly or fortnightly. I will safely accompany you to a place of your choice, or we can discover new places together.

Outings

Visit a garden centre, shopping, café or tea rooms for enjoyable outings.

Appointments

Accompanying you to and from medical appointments with safe and reliable transport.

Support

Assistance with small errands, organisation, and day-to-day tasks to make life a little easier.

Connection

Good chats over a cup of tea or coffee with someone who is genuinely interested in you.

I also offer stay home sits for an hour if that is more suitable.

What This Means for You

A regular friendly face who will support you.

Time especially for you, a nice treat, something to look forward too.

Why is this important

We all deserve to feel valued; it boosts your confidence which in turn promotes independence.

Being out in the community combats loneliness and opens the world to you.

All carers need time to recharge so knowing their loved one is in safe hands with someone who cares. 

Hello, my name is Carlie

I have lived in Doncaster for 30 years but I am originally from Surrey.

I live with my husband, our two children and our dog Poppy.

My work has always involved caring for others, first as a dental nurse, then as a teaching assistant, and most recently as a carer.

I am experienced in supporting those with dementia, Parkinson’s, and epilepsy.

I am DBS checked and have insurance. My vehicle is safe and reliable and serviced regularly. 

I am trustworthy, reliable, and most importantly, kind. I enjoy being with people and building solid, honest relationships you can rely on.
