Description

We’re looking for caring, reliable self‑employed companionship carers to connect with families in Caistor who want conversation, company and reassurance. This role is about spending time with someone — chatting over tea, heading out for short walks or outings, keeping hobbies alive and helping with light tasks around the home to keep life familiar and safe in Caistor.

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

This kind of work suits people who love being present: good listeners who enjoy a laugh, a cuppa and the small, steady routines that make a big difference. You’ll be able to set your own approach — whether that’s regular daytime visits, a couple of longer calls a week or afternoon trips to local parks and cafés. Pay is flexible because carers on PrimeCarers are self‑employed and set their own rates; typical rates for this role run around £18.80–£20 per hour depending on availability and the support required.

PrimeCarers finds you families and handles contracts, invoicing and payments so you can focus on care. Insurance is included while you’re working through the platform, and carers choose their own clients, hours and service area — many of our carers work across Caistor and nearby towns including Market Rasen, Brigg, Immingham, Little Coates, Grimsby and Kirton in Lindsey. If you’re stepping away from agency life or just want more control over who you work with, this could be the change you’re after in Lincolnshire.

To join you’ll need:

  • At least 1 year of professional care experience — we want people who understand boundaries and safe practice.
  • An Enhanced DBS check — PrimeCarers can help arrange this if you need one.
  • The right to work in the UK and verifiable references.

PrimeCarers supports the business side: contracts, invoicing and secure payments are taken care of, and we include insurance for the time you’re working on bookings arranged through us. You remain self‑employed, choose the clients you accept and set your own hours and service area across Caistor and the surrounding parts of Lincolnshire.

Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. If you want companionship work that fits your life — steady, local, and rewarding — create your profile, verify your checks and start choosing clients. Many carers who join find their first local matches quickly and appreciate the independence of being their own boss while having PrimeCarers handle the admin.
