About Mumby’s
Mumby’s was started in 2002 by Ann Mumby, a nurse and care-home professional, who saw that live-in care was an eminently better option than nursing homes. Mumby’s treats clients, their families and their 90+ staff and carers like family; finding the best way to care and develop every individual so they can live life with respect, dignity and choice.
Based in Abingdon, Oxfordshire Mumby’s specialises in providing live-in care services for the elderly, especially those suffering Dementia and Alzheimer’s across Oxfordshire, it’s surrounding counties and London. They also help adults with physical and mental disabilities and have specialist carers that can provide care to high dependency clients. Regulated by the Care Quality Commission Mumby’s were rated good in all areas of inspection in June 2016, and have a customer care charter to ensure their services continue to improve.

Joel Mumby. Operations Director
Operations director
I have been in the business on and off since I was a teenager. I used to drive our carers to and from placements. Since then I have done all roles within the business including Finance, Care management and recruitment. This has led me to Operations as I understand the working of the company. Since I started, the company has grown and with it my role has changed drastically. Working with family isn’t always easy but it provides me with the constant reminder of why we are in the care industry.
