Description

Looking for companionship care work in Emsworth that puts you back in control? On PrimeCarers you help people stay connected — conversation over tea, local outings, shared hobbies and light help around the home for clients who mainly need company and reassurance. You’ll meet families in and around Emsworth and choose the clients who fit your skills and life.

Right now, 6 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This work suits experienced carers who enjoy building relationships rather than task-focused care. Typical companionship duties include regular visits for conversation and reassurance, accompaniment to appointments or cafés, running small errands, prompting and light domestic help like tidying or preparing simple drinks and snacks. Many carers in Emsworth spend 1–3 hours with a client; others offer longer daytime visits or regular weekly social outings. You set your own rates and hours — our platform shows typical ranges like £18.80–£22.50 per hour, and you can pick what suits you between £18.80–£22.50 per hour for hourly care or £148–£165 per day for daytime live-in arrangements.

PrimeCarers is built for self-employed carers. That means you choose your clients, hours and service area, whether you want work across Emsworth only or to travel to nearby towns such as Havant, Waterlooville, Chichester, Southsea, Gosport and Portchester. We find clients for you, handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work. You remain self-employed and in control of your diary.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. Many carers joining from agencies appreciate the straightforward checks and the ability to keep continuity with clients in Hampshire without agency rotas or forced shifts.

Applying takes minutes — complete your profile, upload checks and references, and our team will verify you. Profiles typically go live within days of verification and then you can begin to choose enquiries and accept bookings. If you’re based in Emsworth and want companionship-focused work where relationships matter, PrimeCarers makes it simple to get started while keeping the freedom to run your own care business.
