Description

Companionship care in Hampton Hill focuses on conversation, day trips, hobbies and light help around the home for people who need company and reassurance more than hands-on personal care. You’ll spend time listening, sharing activities and helping someone feel safer and less isolated in their own home in Hampton Hill and nearby areas. Right now, 119 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

These ongoing, self-employed opportunities suit carers who prefer quieter, relationship-led visits rather than intensive clinical shifts. Typical tasks include chatting over tea, going for local walks, supporting hobbies, accompanying clients to appointments or community groups, and simple domestic tasks such as making light meals or tidying after an activity. Work takes place in and around Hampton Hill and across Richmond upon Thames, and often within neighbouring communities such as Teddington, Strawberry Hill, Hampton, Twickenham, Hanworth and Hampton Wick.

As a PrimeCarers self-employed carer you set your own rates and choose which clients, hours and service area you want to work in. Many companionship carers list their rates within the typical range of £19–£21.50 per hour. PrimeCarers finds families for you and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work, so you can focus on the care and the relationship.

We ask for at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. Applying takes minutes; profiles typically go live within days of verification. You remain self-employed throughout — you decide which bookings to accept and when to work.

If you’re thinking of leaving agency work to reclaim control of your time, rates and workload, companionship care through PrimeCarers can be a straightforward next step. We welcome experienced, reliable carers who enjoy building long-term, trusting relationships. To apply, create a profile, complete the short verification steps and start matching with families locally in Hampton Hill and across Richmond upon Thames.
