Description

PrimeCarers connects experienced self-employed carers with families in Brampton and across Cumbria for daytime visiting care. You’ll be supporting people in their own homes with personal care, meals, medication prompts and errands — the kind of hands-on, hourly work that keeps people independent. PrimeCarers handles contracts, invoicing and payments and provides insurance while you work so you can focus on care. Right now, 2 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Typical bookings are hourly home visits during the day. You might do short calls to help with dressing and medication, longer visits to prepare meals and support personal care, or local errands and companionship visits. This work suits experienced carers who prefer variety, continuity with the same families and the freedom to choose when and where they work in and around Brampton.

Pay is set by you. Many carers on the platform charge within the range below, and PrimeCarers makes billing straightforward. Typical ranges include: £19.20–£22 per hour for visiting care, £19.20–£22 per hour for regular hourly care and £145–£160 per day for day rates where applicable. You choose your rate, and we take care of contracts and secure client payments.

What we need from you: 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. You remain self-employed: you pick your clients, hours and service area. Many carers moving from agency work find this model gives them better control over their time and work-life balance in Brampton.
