Why No1 Healthcare Private Carers?
We make it simple and stress-free to find the right live-in carer for your loved one — and give you full control over how care is delivered and managed.
Care with a Personal Touch
Our platform considers over 25 personality traits and care skills to match you with self-employed carers who truly fit your family’s needs. You can view detailed carer profiles, chat directly, and choose the person who feels right — no pressure, no guesswork. And because care decisions are often shared, we’ve built tools that let the whole family stay involved and make decisions together.
You Make the Decisions
At No1 Healthcare, we believe families should stay in control. That’s why you arrange care directly with your chosen carer — not through a rigid care company. Together, you decide on the routine, the schedule, and the way care is delivered. It’s about keeping things familiar and personal, just the way it should be.
Affordable, Transparent Support
Live-in care doesn’t have to break the bank. With No1 Healthcare, you only pay for the care you need — no upfront costs, no hidden fees. Because we connect you with independent carers, our service is typically 35% more cost-effective than traditional managed care agencies.
