Hourly Care Assistant Jobs in Chester

Join PrimeCarers to deliver daytime, hourly home care in Chester — short visits that help people stay independent in their own homes. Work might include personal care, preparing meals, helping with medication, supporting mobility and running errands. You’ll visit clients in their own house for planned daytime calls, usually lasting an hour or more.

Right now, 5 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This kind of work suits experienced, reliable carers who want the variety of visiting different people across Chester and nearby areas. You’ll be helping older people, those recovering from hospital stays and anyone needing regular daily support — all within the community rather than an institution. Visits are focused, practical and person-centred, and you’ll find that building trust over a series of visits is one of the most rewarding parts of the role in Chester.

PrimeCarers is designed for people who want to be self-employed: set your own rates, choose your clients, pick your hours and define the service area. You keep control of where you work in Chester and across Cheshire while PrimeCarers finds clients and handles the paperwork for you. Carers set their own fees and can expect typical ranges around £18.50–£20 per hour depending on the service and client needs.

When you join, PrimeCarers takes care of contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance cover while you work. That means less admin for you and more time with the people you support. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
