Last week, we welcomed new friedns through the doors here at Abbeyfield Hoylake and West Kirby. we were delighted to meet a lovely new group of pre-school children from Carrie’s Tiney Home Nursery and Caroline’s Childminding. It was our very first get-together but it felt like we’d known each other for years.

Caroline’s Childminding

One of the highlights was getting everyone involved in a big, bright parachute game. Our residents held the colourful fabric alongside the children, helping them create a magical little world underneath. It’s such a simple activity but it brings so much delight. Watching our ladies smiling and singing along shows exactly why Abbeyfield Hoylake & West Kirby is known for delivering the highest quality care that feels like family.

We’re firm believers that Residential Care and Respite Care should always include moments like these—shared memories that make everyone feel part of something special. Whether it’s bubbles, books or a good old sing-song, our round the clock care means there’s always someone on hand to make each day brighter.

We’re already looking forward to welcoming Carrie’s Tiney Home Nursery and Caroline’s Childminding back to Abbeyfield Lear House soon. This is what makes our Residential Care Home in West Kirby feel like a true community—one where everyone, young and old, has a place to belong.
