We offer a variety of specialist care services across London from housekeeping and companionship to live-in care and night care.
If you or a loved one needs support during the night or are worried about having an accident at night, please get in touch.
We have a dedicated team of night-time carers that can either provide a waking night service, where the carer stays awake throughout the entire night, or a sleeping night service, where the carer sleeps in a spare room and is available to support you in an emergency, for example, if you were to have a fall or a seizure.
Whatever your care needs and wherever your loved one is on their care journey, please contact us and let’s talk. We're here to help.
We’re often told by families their biggest worry is that something will happen to their loved one while they’re asleep but night time care can alleviate those concerns.
There are a variety of reasons why you might be worried. Some medical conditions can make you prone to seizures at night and others, such as dementia or nocturia (regular nighttime trips to the bathroom), might encourage you to get out of bed in the dark when you’re most at risk of having a fall. Organising nighttime care assistance will reduce the risks of falls and will mean someone is available to support your loved one during an emergency.
Night care can be delivered as a standalone service or in conjunction with live-in care or domiciliary day time care visits. Speak to our care manager about your specific needs and we’ll create a tailored night care plan for you.
Certain medical conditions can deteriorate rapidly during the night. Organising night care will ensure someone is available to act during such an emergency and that an ambulance is called as quickly as possible.
Some families feel they need to move their loved ones to a residential care home because they’re worried something might happen to them during the night. However, this isn’t the only option. Night care assistance can help your loved one to stay safe at home for longer.
Waking up regularly during the night to use the bathroom has been shown to increase the risk of falls by 28%. Night care can help alleviate this risk by ensuring a care assistant is available to assist your loved one to the bathroom when they wake up.

“Making sure my clients are safe during the night is extremely important. When I’m working a sleeping night I make sure that it’s easy for my client to contact me when I’m asleep in case of an emergency. It makes them happy to know I’m around to help them if they need me.”
Our Night Care is based on personal experience
We understand, first-hand how important it is to secure flexible and bespoke home care for your loved one.
“Tiggo Care is born out of my own personal experiences, following my struggle to find suitable care for my parents, both of whom lived with rare diseases..."

At Tiggo Care we understand how precious your loved one is to you and how unique they are. We also appreciate how overwhelming it can be to research and source the most suitable type of care.
We fundamentally believe that there is no ‘one size fits all’ care package and like to work with you and your loved one to understand your specific requirements. We’ll then create a tailored care package and match your relative with their ideal carer.
Unlike some other care providers, we are fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission. This means we are regularly inspected, rated and audited to ensure we are a safe, effective, caring, responsive and well led organisation, committed to delivering the best possible care.
We’re also proud members of the Homecare Association, the U.K’s membership body for home care providers, which holds organisations to a high set of standards and requests them to abide by a strict code of practice
At Tiggo Care, all of our carers undergo a rigorous recruitment and induction process. They are fully vetted and background checked, with all references followed up. Our carers undertake their training on the best eLearning system currently available within the UK care market, ensuring they are well placed to deliver the best possible service. Specialist training courses such as moving and handling, medications and basic life support are also completed by our carers face to face, as we feel these courses are more effective when delivered in person.
If you like what you've read and are ready to access one of our care services or perhaps just have some questions, please follow our simple 3 step process below.
Send us some additional information about your request by emailing us or by using the form below. Alternatively, if you would prefer to speak with someone directly, please feel free to call us.
Our care manager will arrange a free consultation with you at your loved one’s home to better understand your requirements, create a personalised care plan and pair your loved one with a suitable carer.
And that’s it. You’re all set! We’ll introduce you to your loved one’s carer and the whole team, who’ll be able to provide you with all the ongoing support you’ll need.
A sleeping night service is where a care assistant remains in the home of your loved one throughout the night and sleeps in a spare room. They can be woken up by your loved one or an alarm during an emergency and call for an ambulance if required.
A waking night service is where a care assistant remains in the home of your loved one throughout the night and does not go to sleep. They are available to support your loved one at all times.
If a care assistant is required to get out of bed on 2 or more occasions then the sleeping night shift is then usually considered a waking night shift because the carer was unable to get a decent sleep.
Tiggo Care can provide night care as a stand-alone service and is used to working alongside private live-in carers or family members who provide care during the daytime.
Contact our care team using the form below or by calling our office and we'll organise a free consultation to advise you on your specific care needs.
