Dementia Carer Jobs in Finchley

Work with people living with dementia in Finchley, supporting them to stay safe and comfortable at home through patience, predictable routines and familiar surroundings. These are ongoing self-employed opportunities for experienced carers who prefer home-based, person-centred support rather than agency shift lists. Right now, 236 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

What the role involves: helping with personal care, mealtimes and household tasks in ways that preserve dignity; keeping to daily routines, offering calm companionship and reassuring approaches when memory or communication changes. You’ll focus on practical support plus emotional steadiness — knowing when to chat, when to simplify a task, and when to encourage independence. Much of the work is about consistency, observation and small adjustments to keep life as familiar as possible for each person. Finchley clients often ask for carers who value routine and patience.

Pay and flexibility: carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed, set their own rates and choose the clients, hours and service area they accept. Typical pay falls in £18.80–£20 per hour. For clarity, the usual published ranges are £18.80–£20 per hour for hourly care and £145–£160 per day for live-in days. You decide your availability, whether you prefer regular calls, overnight support or longer daytime visits.

Who this suits: experienced care workers who want more control over their diary and who have at least one year of professional care experience. If you’re used to supporting people with memory loss and want to work in familiar homes across Finchley and nearby areas such as Temple Fortune, Hampstead Garden Suburb, East Finchley, Woodside Park, North Finchley and Golders Green, this could be a good fit. We also support carers who want to cover clients in Enfield on occasion.

Requirements to join PrimeCarers (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

How PrimeCarers helps: we find clients for you and take care of contracts, invoicing and payments. Insurance is included while you work on a booking, and we can guide you through DBS checks and basic paperwork so you can focus on care, not admin.

Applying takes minutes and most profiles go live within days of verification. You remain fully self-employed — choosing the clients, hours and neighbourhoods (Finchley, parts of Enfield and nearby) that suit you. If you’re ready to move away from agency constraints and keep delivering thoughtful, routine-based dementia care at home, set up your profile today.
