Visiting Carer Jobs in Gravelly Hill

PrimeCarers connects self-employed visiting carers with families across Gravelly Hill and the surrounding area. These are hourly daytime visits helping clients in their own homes with personal care, meals, medication prompts and errands. You’ll decide who you work for, which streets you cover and the hours you take each week. Right now, 29 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Typical work suits carers who prefer variety and control: a mix of short check-in visits, longer personal care calls and companionship during the day. Visits are usually in private homes in Gravelly Hill and nearby communities; you may also pick up work in Erdington, Stockland Green, Bromford, Ashted, Nechells and Birches Green. PrimeCarers supports you with client matching, contracts, invoicing and payment handling, and provides insurance while you work.

Pay is set by you — many carers on the platform set rates within £18.50–£20 per hour depending on the visit length and client needs. You choose your own hours and can accept single calls or regular weekly bookings. This model is ideal for carers leaving agency rosters who want predictable admin and flexible working patterns without giving up control over rates or clients.

The work itself is hands-on and relational. Typical duties include:

• Personal care: washing, dressing and continence support within the scope of your training and client agreements.
• Meals and nutrition: preparing meals, supporting eating and following dietary guidance.
• Medication prompts: reminding or prompting clients to take prescribed medicines (within agreed care tasks).
• Errands and companionship: shopping trips, light household tasks and spending time with isolated clients.

To join you must have at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one) and verifiable references. You operate as self-employed and set your own rates, choose your clients and define your service area. Applying takes minutes; profiles typically go live within days of verification.

How PrimeCarers helps: we find clients, manage the paperwork and payments, and include insurance while you’re working with a family — so you can focus on care. If you already work in Gravelly Hill or the wider West Midlands and want more control over your day-to-day, this is a simple way to move to self-employed visiting care.
