Description

If you'd rather pick the clients you care for and avoid agency rotas, PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families in Hebden Bridge and the surrounding towns. This page is for carers offering hourly home care — daytime visits to help people with personal care, meals, medication prompts and errands so they can stay independent at home.

Right now, 13 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Work in and around Hebden Bridge, helping people in familiar surroundings: assisting with washing and dressing, supporting safe transfers, preparing meals, prompting or administering medication as agreed, and running small errands. Visits are typically short or medium length during the day; the exact tasks and hours are agreed directly between you and the family. If you’re used to agency shifts but want more control, this is a practical alternative that keeps you hands-on with clients in West Yorkshire communities.

PrimeCarers is an introductory platform: carers remain self-employed and set their own rates and availability. You choose your clients, your hours and the service area you’re prepared to travel within Hebden Bridge and nearby towns, and PrimeCarers finds clients and handles the contracts, invoicing and payments. Insurance is included while you work through the platform. Typical pay visibility is shown on the site; many carers use £18.50–£20 per hour for hourly care and £144–£160 per day for live-in day rates as a guide, while individual rates are set by each carer. You can expect to see £18.50–£20 per hour reflected across local listings.

Who this suits: experienced carers with at least one year of professional care experience who want more flexibility and a clearer relationship with clients. It’s ideal if you value continuity of care, want to avoid long agency rotas and prefer being able to accept or decline work that fits your day.

To join you need an Enhanced DBS (PrimeCarers can help arrange one if you need it), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. Applications take minutes to submit and profiles typically go live within days of verification. Once live you can start selecting clients who match your skills, availability and location preferences in Hebden Bridge and nearby areas.
