Why Aurora

The reassurance you're searching for

Most families find us after a slow-building worry — a missed meal, a fall, or simply too many days alone.

Nurse-led, personally

Every plan is shaped by Kirsty Sellick, our Lead Nurse — over 25 years' nursing experience behind the ordinary moments that matter most.

The same carers, wherever possible

We keep a small team around each person, usually three or four familiar carers a month, so your loved one is never greeted by a stranger.

A free home visit and assessment

Kirsty and Kayleigh visit at home to meet your loved one, understand daily life, and recommend only what is genuinely needed — with no obligation to proceed.

DBS-checked, trained and supervised

Every carer is vetted, inducted and overseen before their first visit — with ongoing supervision, not a one-off tick-box.

Honest about whether we can help

If Aurora is not the right fit, we will say so plainly and point you towards someone who is. No pressure, no hard sell.

Good to know

Your questions, answered plainly

Every plan is built around one person, so we do not publish fixed prices. After a free home visit, Kirsty gives you a clear written quote with no hidden fees — and is honest if something falls outside what Aurora can offer.

Yes. Visits start from one hour, with a minimum of one hour a week. Care is regular, so the same carers get to know the person.

We cover North Dorset, South Somerset and South Wiltshire, including Sturminster Newton, Shaftesbury, Gillingham, Sherborne, Wincanton, Mere, Bruton, Milborne Port and the villages around them. Not sure if we reach you? Call Kirsty with your postcode.

Every carer is DBS-checked, trained and supervised before they visit a client. Kirsty oversees recruitment personally — we do not use agency rotas or unnamed cover.

Start with a phone call or the enquiry form — tell us what is worrying you. Kirsty arranges a free, no-obligation home visit, recommends only what is genuinely needed, and introduces matched carers when you are ready.

What families say

“Aurora Care are the most amazing group of carers. Their experience and compassion are second to none, and they continually go above and beyond for my mum. They haven't just cared for her, they've supported our whole family too. Even though I live four hours away, they've eased so much worry because I know she's in such great hands. Thank you, Kirsty, Kayleigh and the team, you are truly a wonderful group of people and we have been so fortunate to find you.”

“My Mum has been using Aurora Care for a few months. Her carers have been exceptional; friendly, kind, diligent and very caring. Nothing has been too much trouble for them to do.”

Bethany F. Google review

“Lovely ladies, extremely passionate about providing person centred care to the community. Highly recommend.”

“These girls and this business is quite the best. They are fun, professional, reliable and immensely kind and thoughtful. The business as such is very efficiently run and their communication skills with the family and their charges are superb.”

“[Her carer] has been an amazing companion/carer for my Mum who has vascular dementia and Alzheimer's. Mum has always been fiercely independent & with [her carer]'s support, we have the reassurance of knowing that she is safe & well cared for but can continue to live independently in her own home.”
