Description

PrimeCarers connects self-employed visiting carers with families in Baguley who need daytime support in their own homes. These are hourly home care visits: helping with personal care, preparing meals, prompting or administering medication, running errands and companionship. You choose which clients to work with, where in Baguley you’ll travel to, and the hours you take. Work is on a self-employed basis and you set your own rates. Right now, 25 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Most carers on PrimeCarers work regular daytime visits that fit around family life or other commitments. If you're used to agency routines but want more control, this is for you — you pick your clients, your service area and the hours you want. Many carers in Baguley cover nearby areas such as Wythenshawe, Newall Green, Northern Moor, Benchill, Northenden and Sharston as well as other parts of south Manchester.

Pay and flexibility: carers set their own rates and are typically in the £18.50–£20 per hour bracket for visiting care. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments for you, and includes insurance while you’re working for a client. You remain self-employed and free to accept or decline bookings that suit your life.

Who this suits: experienced, compassionate carers who value autonomy. Ideal if you have at least a year of professional care experience, want to leave agency rota patterns behind, and prefer one-to-one visits rather than block shifts. You’ll be doing hands-on support in people’s homes, so a calm, respectful approach and good time management matter.

Requirements to join are straightforward: a minimum of 1 year’s professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check. PrimeCarers can help arrange an Enhanced DBS if you need one. We verify references and ID so your profile can go live quickly.

How to apply: creating a profile takes minutes. Once you submit your details and we complete verification, profiles typically go live within days. From there PrimeCarers introduces you to families and handles contracts, invoicing and payments — leaving you to focus on care and building client relationships in Baguley and across Manchester.

If you’re ready for more control over your work, set your own rates, and want straightforward admin and insurance support while you care, joining PrimeCarers could be the change you’re looking for.
