Description

Work with people living with dementia in Earlsfield and keep them comfortable at home, where routine and familiar surroundings matter most. You’ll support day-to-day needs, encourage meaningful moments and help preserve independence with patience and respect across the Wandsworth area. Right now, 235 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This is an ongoing self-employed opportunity for experienced carers who want control over their work. You choose which clients to accept, the hours you work and your service area. Many carers set clear, consistent routines that help reduce anxiety and support memory through familiar tasks, structured activities and gentle reassurance.

Typical care tasks include companionship, personal care, supporting mealtimes, medication prompts, mobility assistance and keeping a steady, reassuring routine. Dementia support in the home often needs patience, clear communication and small, practical adaptations to help someone feel safe and understood. You’ll bring continuity and calm rather than one-off visits.

Pay and flexibility are in your hands. Carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates; typical rates for this role are £18.80–£20 per hour. You decide your availability, whether you prefer short visits, longer hours or regular calls to the same household. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work.

This work suits carers with at least one year of professional care experience who value building relationships and delivering consistent, compassionate support. You’ll usually be working with people who benefit from predictable routines and familiar faces rather than frequent staff changes.

  • Requirements to join: at least 1 year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK, and verifiable references.
  • Work area: mainly Earlsfield and the surrounding neighbourhoods such as Southfields, Tooting Bec, Tooting, Colliers Wood, South Wimbledon and Balham.

PrimeCarers makes the admin straightforward: we match you with families, manage contracts and payments, and include insurance while you’re working. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you can move from agency-style shifts to choosing your own clients and routines without long delays.

If you’re based in Earlsfield or nearby and want to focus on dementia care that keeps people at home with dignity and familiarity, PrimeCarers could be a good fit.
