"The Good Companion
has provided care for my Mum. The Companions
who look after her on a 24 hour basis fully
understand her needs. They are also a source
of company for my Mum and take her out for
shopping and social activities. This has
enabled her to continue to remain in her
own home."

At the Good Companion we
find time and time again that the elderly
are at times lonely and even a single weekly
visit of a couple of hours helps. A special
outing, social gardening or catching up
over a cup of tea is inexpensive to put
in place and can make a difference. At times
we are contacted by family and friends of
a rest home resident who would benefit by
being visited by their own private companion.
As with other aspects of life, a relatively
insignificant action can assist in achieving
a larger positive outcome.
If you are looking to enhance
your life by making a difference in in someone
else's day, consider coming aboard The Good
Companion. Client assignments available
on Auckland's North Shore, Henderson and
a number of Wellington suburbs. If you are
lucky enough to reside in the Nelson-Marlborough
region we would love to connect with you.

Great Service with very nice people, acted very swiftly to get the service in place to support our family. Many thanks to Good Companions for helping us.
Great experience and service from The Good Companion. Very happy to endorse and recommend The Good Companion to other families. (Our mother) looks forward to planning where she will go with her Companion each week.
Thank you and your team for the absolutely outstanding
support and care of Mum for the last few years. Almost
without exception, all of the Companions who worked
with Mum were overwhelmingly kind, patient, caring
and very professional. They are in fact, a group of
extraordinary women who all give over and above their
expected remit.
We found Good Companion service was attentive from
the start. They listened to our needs and sought to
understand the family well; and were very keen to
meet with us and our grandmother. Their service was so efficient to
find someone so promptly that was very experienced
and could fit in well.
The Good Companion was easy to deal with and responded quickly. It's of great comfort to the family that our loved one is being well looked after to the point where my mother feels like she has made a new friend. Thank you to our contacts at TGC.
The quality of care and services provided has been excellent. The match of companion with the needs of the family couldn't have been better. We have found the company to be very flexible and easy to deal with. All communication has been very timely and offered a great sense of working with what we need. We feel very lucky to have found such a great match with TGC.
Their approach has always been what is the best for Mum and they make sure the family is kept informed of how things are going with her well-being. Well done "Team" TGC, we can't speak highly enough of you & greatly appreciate what you are doing for all, especially Mum.
From the start The Good Companions have been professional, caring and understanding of the needs of my Parents. They have been flexible on the days work hours. Very Caring and great companion while on the job. Highly recommended
I cannot speak highly enough of the Good Companion we had for Mum, It was a game changer for her, and the family, to know that when her companion was attending we could relax. As a service we have and will continue to recommend The Good Companions to others as a valuable adjunct to help care for our cherished loved ones.
The caregivers have been wonderful. The caregivers are always
cheerful, on time and nothing has been too much for them to handle.
It is wonderful to have the choice of in home care where surroundings are familiar,
people can pop in and visit all in a relaxed atmosphere. No feeling of isolation from family and friends.
I just wanted to send an email to say how absolutely
wonderful Jane and Rose have been in their care for
Caroline. Rose has become a friend, a shoulder to cry on
at this tough time and a true professional throughout.
Jane was only with Caroline for a short time but she
also showed such care and compassion.
We wish to acknowledge the wonderful job you
and your team of companions did in lovingly and respectfully
caring for Mum. Her comfort and her wishes were always
paramount..it enabled Mum to remain in her own home
- this was her utmost wish
Communication was easy and efficient
with excellent flexibility. John has made great recovery
from his stroke so we are now looking to the future
and what he may need. We would not hesitate to recommend
The Good Companion.
Just got home from visiting Mum. She seems
very happy with Sarah, who has managed to win
her over by taking an interest in her garden.
If there's one thing Mum loves it's tending
to her plants, so Sarah is definitely a winner
there.
My thanks on behalf of the family for the excellent
service your agency provided for Mum in often challenging
circumstances. Gael has a way about her that made Mum comfortable,
and it was through Gael’s care and attention that
we managed to keep Mum in her own home for the last
3 months.
The Good Companions have been with Mum for
over a year now and her care over this time has been
wonderful. The service provided is very reliable and
to an excellent standard. Pam has put together and
maintains a really good team of staff and really seems
to understand the needs of her clients.
Towards the end our mother was completely bed
ridden, suffering from bouts of dementia, and they
coped marvelously; she always looked immaculate and
happy. In fact they gave her the love and care that
usually only family members are capable of.
