DALO

DALO is a home care agency based in London, in the Barnet council area, registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care to people in their own homes. It most likely works within about 6 miles of its London office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism and people with a sensory impairment. Its website lists younger adults. It is run by DALO Living & Travel. The agency has been registered since February 2016.

At its latest inspection, published January 2023, the CQC rated DALO Good, which means the CQC found the service performing well and meeting its expectations. Ratings can change after a new inspection, so read the CQC report before you decide.

DALO has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Barnet with a rate on record typically charge about £25 an hour and £1,225 a week for live-in care, so expect a figure in that range and ask for a written price list that shows weekend and bank holiday rates.

There are 90 registered home care agencies in Barnet. Others working the same area include Radfield Home Care Barnet & Finchley, Constantia Care Limited and Walfinch East Barnet, 5 of which have a rate on record. A self-employed carer found through PrimeCarers charges £18 to £25 an hour, and live-in care typically about £1,120 a week across England.
