PrimeCarers takes care of the admin so you can care. We find clients, manage contracts, handle invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you’re working. You remain self-employed: you set your own hourly rate, accept the clients you want and control your availability.

To join you’ll need 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. We’ll verify documents and references before your profile goes live — applying takes minutes, and profiles typically appear within days once verified.

How to get started: create a short profile, tell us about your experience and availability, upload checks if you have them (or let us guide you through getting an Enhanced DBS) and choose the areas you’ll work in, including Hoddesdon. We’ll introduce relevant families and you decide which bookings to accept. There’s no employer telling you which shifts to take — you remain in control.
