Description
PrimeCarers is matching experienced self-employed carers with families across Harrington who need reliable daytime visiting care.

This is ongoing work for carers who prefer variety and control. You choose the clients you accept, your hours and your service area around Harrington and nearby towns such as Desborough, Rothwell, Market Harborough, Kettering, Burton Latimer and Corby. You also set your own rates, so you control how you value your time and skills. Typical pay sits around £18.89–£21 per hour, and you can pick shifts that fit your life — school runs, daytime rounds or shorter calls.
