What the role involves: hourly home care visits during the day to help with personal care (washing, dressing, continence support), preparing meals and drinks, assisting with medication prompts, light household tasks and shopping or appointment errands. Visits are usually short blocks of support that fit around your diary. This page advertises ongoing self-employed opportunities across Covent Garden and nearby locations such as Lee, St Giles, Charing Cross, Aldwych, Chinatown and London.

Pay and flexibility: carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates; the typical range for these roles is £18.80–£20 per hour, and you choose when and where you work. We also list hourly care and live-in day ranges for reference: £18.80–£20 per hour and £145–£160 per day. PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work.

Who this suits: if you have at least a year of professional care experience and you want more control than traditional agency work — choosing clients, hours and service area — this platform is designed for you. It’s ideal for carers who value flexibility, want to keep their independence as self-employed practitioners and prefer daytime hourly visits over shift-based rotas.

Required checks and support: you need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check and verifiable references. PrimeCarers can help arrange an Enhanced DBS if you don’t yet have one. We verify documents quickly so your profile can start attracting clients.

How to apply: creating a profile takes minutes and you control the information families see. Profiles typically go live within days of verification.
