Description
Looking for flexible respite work around Isleworth that respects your experience and gives families reliable short-term cover? PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers with local families needing breaks from a few hours to a few days — weekend cover, holiday support and occasional evenings. You set your own rates, choose clients and control your availability across Isleworth and nearby areas. Right now, 148 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Respite care can include companionship, personal care, medication prompts, meal preparation and supporting day-to-day routines while family carers rest. Most assignments are straightforward shifts in a family home; some are regular weekend bookings, others are ad-hoc hours. You’ll often work with people who want calm, consistent support and someone who understands the pressures on family carers.
Who this suits: experienced, confident carers who prefer being self-employed and want more control than agency work gives. If you’ve got at least one year of professional care experience and you value predictable admin, PrimeCarers can take the paperwork off your hands so you can focus on care.
Pay and flexibility: Carers on PrimeCarers set their own rates and choose their hours. Typical ranges are shown on the platform: £19–£21.50 per hour. You decide whether you take short evening shifts, weekend days or block cover for a few nights.
What we handle for you: PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work. That means less time chasing paperwork and more time on the floor doing what you do best.
Requirements to join: you need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK, and verifiable references. Once you apply, it takes minutes to register and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
Isleworth carers often choose to work across nearby neighbourhoods such as St Margarets, Richmond, Lampton, Osterley, Eel Pie Island and Brentford. Many carers on the platform balance PrimeCarers bookings with other commitments, picking the hours and clients that fit their life and priorities.
