Description
Looking for daytime visiting carer work in Blackfen where you can support people in their own homes with personal care, meals, medication prompts and small errands? PrimeCarers introduces self‑employed carers directly to local families so you can focus on care, not paperwork. You’ll be offering hourly home care visits, choosing the clients and hours that suit you and setting your own rate. Right now, 114 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
This work suits experienced carers who want to leave agency structures behind without taking on all the admin. Typical visits are one‑to‑one daytime calls that help people stay independent at home. You decide whether to take short calls or regular daytime shifts; you pick the clients, the times and the area you cover. Many carers who join from agency work value the flexibility and the clearer relationship with the families they support in places like Blackfen and across Bexley.
Pay and flexibility: you are self‑employed and set your own rate — many carers use £18.80–£20.50 per hour as a guide when deciding what to charge. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you are working on a placement. This means you can concentrate on care, knowing the administrative side is covered.
- Who we’re looking for — Carers with at least one year of professional care experience who want to work independently in the community around Blackfen and nearby areas such as Falconwood, Welling, Lamorbey, Blendon, Old Bexley and Crook Log.
- Essential checks — An Enhanced DBS check is required; PrimeCarers can help arrange this. You also need the right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
- Self‑employed only — These are ongoing self‑employed opportunities, not a single job listing. You remain in control of your diary and your service area.
