Trusted care when you can't be there.

Safe hands for your little ones, and your four-legged ones.

I'm Jade. Alongside a 13-year career in healthcare, I look after children and pets for local families across the Fylde coast, with the patience, warmth and reliability you'd want from someone in your own home.

DBS checked First-aid trained 10+ years with children
Two kinds of care, one careful person

Whoever you're leaving at home, they're in good company.

Newborn → school age

Childcare & babysitting

Attentive, hands-on care that keeps to your routines. Bedtimes kept, homework done, tears mopped. I treat your home and your children the way I'd want mine treated.

  • Evening, weekend & daytime babysitting
  • Emergency & last-minute cover
  • Overnight care (Friday & Saturday)
  • Home-school helper
Dogs, cats & small pets

Pet care & sitting

A calm, animal-loving pair of hands for the other members of the family. Fed, walked, fussed over and kept to their own routine while you're away.

  • Dog walking & drop-in visits
  • Feeding, playtime & company
  • Holiday & day-away pet sitting
  • Comfortable with pets of all sizes

About Jade

Care isn't my side job. It's who I am.

I've spent over a decade working with children and more than thirteen years in healthcare, so looking after people (and their pets) is second nature. I'm a non-smoker, I live locally, and I run Care by Jade around a job I take just as seriously.

“Trustworthy, reliable and genuinely professional. That's the standard I hold myself to for every family I look after.”
