Respite Carer Jobs in Bulwell

Short-term and weekend respite cover is in demand across Bulwell. If you’re an experienced carer who wants reliable, flexible work supporting families — from a few hours to a few days — PrimeCarers connects you directly with local families who need relief for their unpaid carers.

Right now, 6 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Respite care on PrimeCarers can involve sitting with someone while the family rests, supporting personal care for a few hours, companion visits, or staying overnight for short periods. Work is varied: some bookings are a couple of hours in an afternoon, others are weekend stays or block cover for a few days. You decide what you’ll accept and how far around Bulwell you’ll travel, including nearby towns such as Kimberley, Hucknall, Arnold, Eastwood, Ilkeston and Beeston.

This role suits experienced carers who value flexibility and direct relationships with families. Many people who have worked with agencies switch to PrimeCarers because they want to set their own rates and control their diary. You set your own fee per job and can review what works for you and the families you support. Typical pay in this area is £18.50–£20.50 per hour depending on the level of care required and the hours agreed.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one if needed), the right to work in the UK, and verifiable references. We check these details before your profile goes live so families can book you with confidence.

PrimeCarers makes the practical side straightforward: we find clients, handle written agreements, invoicing and secure payments, and provide insurance cover while you’re working on a booking. That means you can focus on caring rather than paperwork. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
