Description
PrimeCarers is looking for experienced self-employed carers in Earl Shilton to provide daytime, hourly home care visits.

These roles suit carers who prefer short daytime visits and a mix of hands-on care and companionship.
Right now, 7 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
If you want more control than agency work offers, PrimeCarers lets you set your own rate and choose the clients, hours and service area that suit you. Typical rates for these roles are £18.50–£20 per hour and carers decide their own fees within that market range. You stay fully self-employed; PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you work.
This work is based around local homes in Earl Shilton and nearby communities such as Hinckley, Market Bosworth, Braunstone Town, Nuneaton, Camp Hill and Wigston Magna, so you can build a regular daytime caseload without long travel. Many carers who join value the flexibility to accept visits that fit around family life, college or other work.

- An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this if needed).
- The right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
- Good communication, a kind manner and reliable timekeeping.
