Dementia Support Carer Jobs in Harborne

If you have experience supporting people living with dementia at home and want more control over your work, PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers with families across Harborne who value patience, routine and familiar surroundings. Right now, 26 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Work focuses on in-home dementia support: building predictable routines, gentle prompting with daily tasks, companionship, supporting mealtimes, managing risks and liaising with families to keep care calm and consistent. You’ll often help people stay comfortable in their own home longer by using familiar cues, simple activities and clear communication. Most assignments are within Harborne and nearby communities such as Harts Green, Beech Lanes, California, Chad Valley, Selly Oak and Bournbrook, but you choose the area you cover.

This is ongoing self-employed work — carers set their own rates and choose their clients, hours and service area. Typical pay sits around £18.50–£20 per hour depending on experience and the needs of the person you support. You can offer hourly visits or longer sessions; many carers use £18.50–£20 per hour for hourly care or £145–£160 per day for live-in day work as a guide when setting their prices.

PrimeCarers does the matching and back-office: we find families, manage contracts, handle invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you’re working. That means you can concentrate on delivering thoughtful, person-centred care rather than paperwork. Many carers moving away from agency rotas like the ability to pick clients who fit their skills and to develop long-term support relationships in Harborne and across the West Midlands.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this) and verifiable references. You remain self-employed: you set your hours, choose who you accept and invoice through PrimeCarers for completed work. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

If you’re a patient, reliable carer who enjoys routine, gentle engagement and working closely with families, PrimeCarers could help you move to a more independent way of working in Harborne. Create a profile, choose the clients that suit you and start offering dementia support where it matters most — at home.
