Hourly Care Assistant Jobs in Cranham

Work as an hourly care assistant visiting clients in their own homes across Cranham and the wider Havering area. Daytime visits typically include personal care, meal preparation, medication prompts and light errands — the hands‑on support that helps people remain independent where they feel most comfortable. Right now, 115 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This role suits experienced carers who value flexibility and a direct relationship with the families they support. Hourly home care shifts are ideal if you prefer shorter visits, want to manage a varied schedule, or are moving away from agency rota work. You set your own service area and working pattern, and many carers in the area choose to work around family and other commitments.

Who we’re looking for
