Dementia Support Carer Jobs in Harrow

Join PrimeCarers as a self-employed dementia support carer across Harrow, helping people stay at home where they're most comfortable. This role focuses on supporting clients living with dementia through patient, consistent routines, familiar activities and gentle prompts — not institutional care. You’ll work in people’s homes, building trusting relationships, supporting daily life, enabling independence and reducing distress by keeping things familiar and predictable.

Right now, 133 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

The work typically involves companionship, assistance with personal care when needed, supporting mealtimes, prompting medication as agreed in a care plan, and encouraging meaningful, routine activities that reduce anxiety. You’ll be valued for patience, observational skills, clear communication and a steady approach when routines change. Many carers who move from agencies tell us they appreciate fewer last-minute changes and the chance to match with clients whose needs fit their skills and temperament.

PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers with families in Harrow and nearby areas such as West Harrow, Harrow on the Hill, North Harrow, South Harrow, Wealdstone and Rayners Lane. You choose your own clients, hours and service area, and you set your own rate. Typical roles are within £19–£21.50 per hour depending on care needs and your experience. PrimeCarers handles the paperwork: we find clients, manage contracts, invoices and payments, and provide insurance cover while you work.

To join you’ll need:

• At least 1 year of professional care experience — practical experience supporting people in their homes, including dementia care, matters most.
• An Enhanced DBS check — PrimeCarers can help arrange this if you don’t already have one.
• The right to work in the UK and verifiable references.

Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. Once live, you can review client requests and accept matches that suit your availability across Harrow and other parts of Greater London. You remain self-employed throughout: you choose which offers to accept, which clients to meet, and when you work.
