Meet the Bayleaf Care Home Team

Hello, my name is Kelly.

With over 11 years of dedicated experience in dementia care, I have developed a deep understanding of the unique needs and challenges of individuals living with dementia.

Starting my career as a care assistant, I am committed to providing exceptional care and support to those living at Hampton Grove.

And support the team to drive the quality of care and create a warm, supportive environment for both residents and staff

My name is Nadine Willerton I am the Home Services’ Advisor here at Bayleaf. I have worked in Health and Social Care for 17 years, in various different roles such as Health Care Assistant, Pharmacy Manager, Trainer and Customer Relations Manager. Working in the community as well as Nursing and Residential Care Homes.

I am very excited to be working with the team to follow Barchester’s values and life enrichment programme. I have a passion for supporting our residents and loved ones to find the right care home and to support them on their journey being able to give advice where needed.

In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family, we love to go to the beach!

I have been in administration for 10 years and it gives me great pleasure to be part of a team that concentrates on person centred care.  My role includes supporting residents and their families with any financial matters that may arise, this may be ordering a favourite newspaper or making sure a resident has their hair done and look extra special for a family event.  

My team and I will be some of the first people you meet when you come into the home.  We make a point of knowing all of the residents and their families and are look forward to welcoming you to Bayleaf.
