The best decision we made and we have never looked back.

The best decision we made and we have never looked back.

Two years ago, with my mother in a step down facility after breaking her hip, we were faced with the difficult choice of either moving her into a Home or finding a way for her to remain in her flat. Remaining in the flat was the preferred choice, but we had a number of practical considerations, as I live in Johannesburg and my brothers live overseas. While our family in Cape Town are incredibly supportive, there are times that they are away or not available. Asking them to take responsibility for my mom was too much to expect. We chose Robin’s Trust to provide live in care but were still concerned about relying on family in Cape Town to do shopping and other ad-hoc requirements. Someone recommended Daughters On Loan and after meeting with Marissa and Desray we decided that the service they offered would provide just what we needed. It was the best decision we made and we have never looked back. Over the past 2 years they have shopped for my mom weekly, as well as helping out with various unforeseen requirements. They have been there through various crises, helping to coordinate with Doctors, Pharmacies, Robins Trust, staff and various other service providers. They are attentive, responsive and always available to go the extra mile. I’m not sure what we would have done without them during the Covid crises when our family in Cape Town were locked down and unable to assist. I have no hesitation recommending their services. If anyone has questions, they're welcome to contact me via Daughters on Loan.
