Description
Work as a self-employed private carer in Bloomsbury, offering hourly home care visits during the day. You’ll help people remain independent at home with personal care, preparing meals, prompting or administering medication, running errands and offering companionship — the practical, hands-on support that matters most in people’s lives. Right now, 240 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Typical daytime visits centre on dignity, routine and practical help. Tasks often include personal care, mobility support, safe meal prep, medicine reminders, shopping or post and small errands. This kind of work suits experienced carers who want to move away from agency rosters and take control of when and where they work. You remain self-employed: you set your own prices, choose your clients, pick your hours and define the service area — whether you want to focus on Bloomsbury or travel across parts of Camden.
Many carers on PrimeCarers advertise their hourly rates within an expected range of £18.80–£20 per hour. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments and provides insurance while you work, so you can concentrate on care rather than paperwork. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
To join you’ll need at least 1 year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. An Enhanced DBS check is required; PrimeCarers can help arrange this if you don’t already have one. You must be self-employed while using the platform and able to meet the basic checks — these steps keep people safe and help families trust who they invite into their homes in Bloomsbury.
We advertise ongoing self-employed opportunities rather than a single post. You decide whether to accept enquiries for short daytime visits or longer hourly stays. You can list the areas you’ll cover — Bloomsbury and St Pancras, Fitzrovia, Lee, St Giles, Somerstown and Holborn — and update your availability as you wish. Profiles that pass verification usually start getting enquiries within days, and the team is on hand if you need help setting up or understanding fees and paperwork.
If you’re an experienced carer ready for more control over your work and want to help people live well at home in Bloomsbury, create your profile today. The sign-up takes minutes and gives you a practical route to ongoing, flexible home care work in the area.
