Weekend Carer Jobs in Ffestiniog

If you’re an experienced carer in Ffestiniog who wants to focus on short-term and weekend respite work, this could be the change you’re looking for. You’ll provide cover that gives family carers a break — from a few hours to a few days — helping people stay safe and comfortable at home while their family has time to rest. You decide when you work, who you support and how you travel across Ffestiniog and nearby areas.

Respite roles through PrimeCarers are flexible by design. Many carers take weekend shifts, short stays or block cover across Conwy and the surrounding valleys, and some take occasional live-in assignments. You set your own rate as a self-employed carer and can choose £15–£25 per hour for hourly care or £145–£160 per day for live-in days. Typical carers on the platform charge within £15–£25 per hour but you remain in control. PrimeCarers finds families for you and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work.

This kind of work suits someone with a calm, practical approach to personal care and companionship. You might be thinking about leaving agency work because you want more control over your time, clearer handovers, and the chance to build trusted short-term relationships with families in Ffestiniog, Blaenau Ffestiniog and across Conwy. Weekend respite can be varied: medication prompts, personal care, light domestic support, companionship and outings. Every placement is different — you choose what you’ll accept.

Requirements to join

• At least 1 year’s professional care experience.
• An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this).
• The right to work in the UK and verifiable references.

PrimeCarers is built for carers who want to be independent but not isolated. We manage client introductions and the paperwork, so you can focus on care.
