Dementia Carer Jobs in Airth

We’re looking for experienced, caring people to support clients living with dementia at home in and around Airth. This work is about patience, steady routines and keeping life familiar — sitting with someone over a cuppa, helping with personal care, prompting medication, maintaining daily structure and supporting family carers so their loved one can stay at home for longer. Right now, 2 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

These are ongoing self-employed opportunities rather than a single post. You’ll support people across Airth and nearby communities such as Dunmore, Kincardine, Clackmannan, Carron, Alloa and Stenhousemuir, and around Stirling where needs arise. The role suits carers who prefer one-to-one continuity, who value small, steady tasks carried out with kindness, and who know how to work at the person’s pace rather than chasing time-coded tasks.

Pay and working style are flexible: you are self-employed, you set your own rates and choose which clients, hours and service area suit you. Typical rates are £18.80–£20 per hour. For reference, you’ll see ranges such as £18.80–£20 per hour for hourly care and £140–£160 per day for live-in days when clients request that option. PrimeCarers brings you client matches and handles contracts, invoicing and payments; insurance is included while you work through the platform.

Who this suits

• Experienced carers: at least 1 year of professional care experience, ideally with dementia care or older-adult support.
• Person-centred practitioners: you use routine, familiar cues and calm communication rather than raising your voice or rushing.
• Reliable and flexible: you can build trusting relationships and adapt to small, changing needs at home.

Requirements to join are straightforward: at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We do not ask you to sign fixed contracts tying you down; as a self-employed carer you remain in control of where and when you work.

How to apply: creating a profile takes minutes and PrimeCarers verifies documents, checks references and can support your DBS application. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, after which you’ll begin to receive client introductions and can accept only the assignments you want. If you’re based in Airth, or travel from nearby towns, and want to deliver calm, routine-focused dementia care at home, this could be the right next step for you.
