Description
If you’re an experienced carer in Harefield looking for daytime, hourly home care work, PrimeCarers connects you directly with families who need help with personal care, meals, medication prompts and errands. You’ll choose your own clients, hours and service area, and set the rates that suit you. Right now, 103 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Most carers prefer this role if they want more control than traditional agency work. Visits are usually short daytime calls: helping someone get washed and dressed, supporting with mobility, preparing meals, prompting medication and popping out for small errands. Work is local to Harefield and the surrounding communities, so you can build a schedule that fits your life in Hillingdon and beyond.
As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own hourly rate and keep the flexibility. Typical rates sit around £19–£22 per hour. We handle the administration you don’t want: finding clients, contracts, invoicing and secure payments, and we provide insurance while you work.
Who this suits:
- Experienced carers who’ve done at least a year of professional care and want a different way of working in Harefield.
- People who value flexibility — choose daytime visits that fit around family or study, or build a regular caseload in your neighbourhood.
- Carers who want to keep care personal — more choice over who you accept and the way you deliver support.
Requirements to join are straightforward: at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK, and verifiable references. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. We’ll verify your checks and references so you can start accepting bookings in Harefield and nearby areas such as Northwood, Rickmansworth, Ickenham, Ruislip, Uxbridge and Chorleywood.
We do not promise specific hours or income. Instead, we give you the tools and support to find clients, manage paperwork and get paid reliably while you remain self-employed and in control of your work. If you’re ready to move away from heavy agency routines and work more independently in Harefield, creating a profile is the first step.
