Description
If you’re an experienced carer who understands the importance of patience, routine and familiar surroundings, PrimeCarers connects you with families across Hamstead who need dementia support at home. You’ll help people stay safe, calm and settled — supporting daily routines, prompting tasks, offering companionship and working with families and professionals to maintain dignity and continuity of care. Right now, 227 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
These are ongoing, self-employed opportunities centred on home-based dementia care in Hamstead and nearby areas including Hampstead, Frognal, Belsize Park, Swiss Cottage, Childs Hill and West Hampstead. You choose the clients you work with, the hours you accept and the area you cover. Carers on PrimeCarers set their own rates: typical roles sit around £18.80–£20 per hour with common structures such as hourly care (£18.80–£20 per hour) and live-in day rates (£145–£160 per day).
This kind of work suits someone who values long-term, relationship-based care: you’ll work to maintain familiar routines, support mealtimes and medication prompts, manage safe mobility around the home, and help with gentle activity and reassurance during moments of confusion. You may work evenings, mornings or daytime calls; many families prefer consistent faces rather than changing rotas.
PrimeCarers removes much of the admin burden so you can focus on care. We find families, handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you’re working. You remain self-employed: set your own rates and accept the clients and hours that suit you. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
To join we ask for 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 have specialist dementia training or experience with person-centred approaches, please highlight that on your profile — families looking in Hamstead and Camden often want carers who understand communication techniques, reminiscence work and consistent routines.
