Description
PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families across Golbourne and the surrounding parts of Greater Manchester. You’ll carry out daytime hourly home care visits supporting people in their own homes with personal care, meals, medication prompts and essential errands — all while choosing who you work for and when. Right now, 31 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
This work suits carers who want the flexibility to balance life and work. In Golbourne you might support older adults who need help getting up, dressing, preparing meals, taking medication and getting out for short local trips. Visits are typically hourly, daytime support — you’ll be working in people’s homes, offering practical help and companionship rather than clinical nursing tasks. You set your own working area and can accept or decline any client who contacts you.
As a PrimeCarers professional you remain self-employed: you set your rates, choose your clients, and pick your hours. Many carers on the platform charge within £18.50–£20 per hour depending on experience and the client’s needs. PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance cover while you work.
Requirements to join are straightforward and focused on safe, reliable care: at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK, and verifiable references. If you’ve worked for an agency or privately before and are ready to take more control over your work, PrimeCarers makes the shift simple and secure.
