Description

Work as a self-employed carer in Bishops Waltham providing daytime, hourly home care to adults who want to remain safe and comfortable in their own homes. You’ll do visits for personal care, meals, medication prompts and errands, and you choose the clients and hours that suit you. Right now, 11 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

These ongoing self-employed opportunities are ideal if you’re experienced in care and ready to move away from agency rotas. Visiting people in and around Bishops Waltham — including nearby towns like Wickham, Hedge End, Eastleigh, Fareham, Coombe and Portchester — you’ll often support the same clients regularly, building relationships and offering continuity of care.

Pay is flexible because carers set their own rates. Typical roles on PrimeCarers fall in the range £18.80–£20 per hour, with more detailed hourly or live‑in day ranges available: £18.80–£20 per hour and £145–£160 per day. You decide what you charge, which clients you accept, and which streets of Bishops Waltham and Hampshire you’ll cover.

What the work involves

  • Short daytime visits and longer hourly calls to help with personal care, dressing, continence support, meal preparation, and medication prompts.
  • Practical errands and companionship to keep clients independent in their own homes.
  • Clear, respectful communication with families and the person you support — you set boundaries and agree visit lengths directly.

Who we’re looking for

  • At least 1 year of professional care experience.
  • An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one if you need it).
  • The right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
