As a companionship carer on PrimeCarers you set your own approach. Carers are self-employed, choose their clients, hours and service area, and set their own rates — typical roles range around £18.80–£20 per hour depending on the work and your experience. You’ll do things like keep someone company over a cuppa, join them for a short walk or trip to a café, encourage hobbies, help with light household tasks and offer reassurance in the home.

This kind of work suits experienced carers who value continuity and time to build rapport. It’s especially good if you’re thinking of moving away from agency rota pressures: you can accept only the clients and shifts that fit your life while keeping the personal, relational side of care at the centre of your work.

PrimeCarers makes running your self-employed care work straightforward. We find clients, handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work. Typical pay benchmarks we often see are shown as £18.80–£20 per hour for hourly visits and £147.50–£162.50 per day for live-in day rates — but you choose the exact rate you want to charge.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS (we can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You’ll be able to work across Falcon Lodge and neighbouring areas like Reddicap Heath, Whitehouse Common, Thimble End, Sutton Coldfield, Walmley Ash and Walmley.

Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days once we’ve verified your details. If you want a flexible, relationship-focused way to care for people in Falcon Lodge, create your PrimeCarers profile and start choosing the work that suits you.
