Description

Work with people living with dementia in Eden Park and help them stay at home, where routine and familiar surroundings make the biggest difference. You’ll support daily routines, offer calm companionship and work with families to keep care predictable and person-centred.
Right now, 196 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This is ongoing self-employed work across Eden Park and nearby neighbourhoods. You’ll focus on dementia support at home: keeping to familiar routines, helping with bathing, dressing, meals, medication prompts and meaningful activities that reduce anxiety. Tasks are shaped around each person’s needs and life story. Patience, a steady approach and good observational skills matter more than ever.

PrimeCarers is designed for experienced carers considering a move away from agency models. You choose who you support, which hours you accept and the service area you cover — whether you want to work only in Eden Park or include West Wickham, Elmers End, Beckenham, Coney Hall, Addington and Addiscombe. PrimeCarers finds clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work. You remain self-employed and set your own rates and availability.

Typical rates for dementia support vary by client and shift; many carers on the platform charge within £18.80–£20 per hour. For clarity, the platform also shows common ranges like £18.80–£20 per hour for hourly care and £145–£160 per day for live-in days so you can decide what to charge. We don’t promise a specific income; rates reflect choices you make about hours, clients and the support you offer.

To join, you’ll need:

  • At least 1 year of professional care experience
  • An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one)
  • The right to work in the UK
  • Verifiable references

Applying takes minutes and your profile usually goes live within days of verification. Once live you can review client requests and accept only the work that fits your skills and life. This page advertises ongoing self-employed opportunities across Eden Park and Bromley rather than a single role. If you’re ready to bring calm, routine and dignity to people living with dementia, set up your profile and start choosing the work you want.
