Description

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families in Brackley who need daytime hourly home care. You’ll be doing visits that support people in their own homes with personal care, meal preparation, medication prompts and errands. You set your own rates and choose the clients, hours and service area that fit your life. Right now, 6 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This role suits carers who want more control than agency shifts allow. Many people come to PrimeCarers after a year or more in frontline care and want to keep delivering quality personal support while shaping their own diary. Typical daytime visiting work includes helping with personal hygiene, dressing, mobility support, meal prep, accompanying clients to appointments and picking up shopping or prescriptions.

Pay is entirely set by you; typical rates for this kind of work fall in £19–£21.50 per hour depending on experience and location. You remain self-employed and free to accept only the visits that suit you. Most carers who work through PrimeCarers combine flexibility with reliable, regular bookings across Brackley and the surrounding area such as Buckingham, Banbury, Bicester, Ruscote, Neithrop and Towcester in Northamptonshire.

PrimeCarers handles the admin so you can focus on care. We find clients, draw up contracts, take care of invoicing and payments, and include insurance while you are working on a placement. That means less paperwork for you and clearer, quicker payments from families.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We check documents carefully to protect clients and carers alike. Applying takes minutes online, and profiles commonly go live within days of verification.

These are ongoing self-employed opportunities rather than a single role. If you’re used to agency life but want to set your own rates, pick your hours and work more directly with families in Brackley and Northamptonshire, PrimeCarers is designed for you. Create a profile, choose the visits you want and keep control of your work-life balance.
