Supported Living

Domiciliary care is where a range of services is provided to an individual in the comfort of their home thus promoting independence and individualism.

Ensuring Quality Care, Comfort, and Inclusivity

At Devoted Butterfly, we recognise that change can be overwhelming, particularly for individuals with learning disabilities and autism. That’s why we approach our services with warmth and personalisation, ensuring a seamless fit for each person’s unique needs. For those who may benefit from a gradual transition over several months to alleviate any anxiety, we meticulously tailor the process for simplicity, ease, and comfort.

Our devoted team of caregivers stands by to provide steadfast support and valuable guidance throughout the journey. Through our services, we aim to empower our residents by offering increased choices and autonomy in their lives. Our meticulously crafted support plans revolve around the distinct aspirations of each individual, motivating them to achieve their fullest potential.

Central to our ethos is a genuine focus on people. We consistently review and refine our support plans, aiding our residents in gaining self-reliance, seeking fulfilling opportunities, and becoming integral parts of their communities. With empathy and determination, we are resolute in nurturing a positive and empowering environment for all those in our care.
