Private Carer Jobs in Cricklewood

Work as a self‑employed private carer offering hourly daytime home care in Cricklewood. You’ll support people in their own homes with personal care, meal support, medication prompts and errands. Carers on PrimeCarers choose their own clients, hours and service area while setting their own rates. PrimeCarers finds clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work.

Right now, 235 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Daytime visits are often 30 minutes to a few hours and focus on practical, person‑centred support. You might help someone get dressed, prepare lunch, remind them about medication, pop to the shops or simply be company and keep them safe between appointments. This role suits experienced carers who value continuity of care and prefer working one‑to‑one in a client’s home rather than doing rounds dictated by an agency rota.

Pay and flexibility are in your hands. Carers on our platform set their own rates and can accept work that fits their life. Typical pay falls in the range £18.80–£20.20 per hour. You decide which clients you accept, what areas you’ll cover and the hours you want to work — whether you prefer regular daytime visits or a mix of short and longer calls.

PrimeCarers is aimed at carers who already have at least one year of professional care experience and who want more control over their work. To join you’ll need an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We verify profiles quickly: applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

Many of our carers live and work around Cricklewood and neighbouring communities, so you could pick clients close to home or expand across Brent if you prefer. We connect you with local households — whether you work around Childs Hill, Dollis Hill, West Hampstead, Brondesbury, Willesden and Brent Cross or within Cricklewood itself — and we support you with the paperwork and payments so you can focus on care.

If you’re thinking of leaving agency work for something more flexible and autonomous, PrimeCarers gives you the tools to manage your own self‑employed care work without handling every admin task yourself. Create a profile, complete verification and start choosing the visits that suit you.
