Description
PrimeCarers connects experienced, self‑employed carers with families in Blackwall and the surrounding parts of Tower Hamlets. You’ll provide daytime, hourly home care — helping clients with personal care, meals, medication prompts and local errands — while keeping control over who you work for and when. You set your own rates and choose clients, hours and the area you cover, and many carers use PrimeCarers to move away from agency rotas and restrictive pay bands.
Right now, 214 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Work in and around Blackwall, including short trips to nearby areas like Poplar, Leamouth, Canary Wharf, Cubitt Town, Isle of Dogs and Millwall. Visits are typically hourly daytime calls supporting independence at home: helping with washing and dressing, preparing simple meals, supporting mobility, prompting or administering medication where appropriate, or running small errands and appointments. This role suits carers who value flexible shifts, straightforward paperwork and a closer working relationship with the families they support.
Pay & flexibility: Carers on PrimeCarers are self‑employed and set their own rates. Typical earnings for these roles are within £18.80–£20 per hour, and you can accept only the visits that suit your schedule and travel limits. PrimeCarers handles the client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides cover with insurance while you work.
What we need from you:
- At least one year of professional care experience.
- An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this if you need one).
- The right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
If you’re an experienced carer currently working through an agency and wanting more control over your time and rates, PrimeCarers makes the switch simple. Many carers apply because they prefer visiting the same clients for continuity, choose shorter travel distances around Blackwall, and keep clearer records of the work they do.
How applying works: The online application takes only minutes. Once you submit your profile and references, we verify details and you’ll typically see your profile go live within days. From there, PrimeCarers introduces you to families looking for hourly daytime care; you choose any offer that fits your schedule.
