Common questions about price
How much does it cost?
Essentials is €109 a month (a check-in visit every week). Companion is €299 a month: every week a social visit, a wellness outing and errands or household help, plus a lunch out each month with meals for both included (up to €50). Custom plans are €24 an hour plus €4 travel per visit, and can include dinners, culture visits, spa afternoons and more. Shopping is charged at cost with receipts.
Why do you ask for my card to join the waiting list?
So that we can hold places for families who are ready to start. Your card is saved securely by Stripe, not charged. We only take the first month if we offer you a place and you haven't withdrawn. You can withdraw from your account page at any time before then, with no charge.
Is there a place next month?
We take a small number of families so that every family gets proper time. When you join you are in the queue for next month's intake, but a place may not be free next month. If it isn't, you keep your place in the queue and we tell you as soon as one opens.
Can I pay in pounds?
Our prices are in euros. UK debit and credit cards work fine; your bank converts the amount. The pound prices on this site are approximate.
How do I cancel?
Give one month's notice by message or email; there is no exit fee. If the first month isn't right for you, cancel within 7 days of the first visit and we refund the plan fee (less €4 travel per visit already made, and any meals already enjoyed), or within 14 days for a 50% refund. Shopping is always paid back at cost, as it has already been bought.
Is there an introductory offer?
Yes, for a limited time the first month of the Companion plan is €199 instead of €299. After that it is €299 a month.
Join next month's intake
We take a small number of families each month so every family gets proper time. Join the waiting list for next month's intake: your card is saved, not charged, until we offer you a place.
