Description
PrimeCarers connects experienced self-employed carers with families across Kentish Town and nearby streets.

Right now, 226 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Visiting care in Kentish Town typically means short daytime visits ranging from 30 minutes to a few hours. You’ll support people to stay independent in their own homes, whether that’s helping with washing and dressing, preparing meals, prompting medication, or doing shopping and light errands. Work can be in Kentish Town itself or the surrounding parts of Camden, including Chalk Farm, Gospel Oak, Tufnell Park, Primrose Hill, Camden Town and Belsize Park.
Carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed: you set your own rates, choose your clients, your hours and your service area. Typical pay sits around £18.80–£20 per hour, with a clear breakdown of what you charge per visit. For reference, many carers also look at £18.80–£20 per hour for hourly care or £145–£160 per day for longer day cover when discussing options with families. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you’re working on a placement.
This arrangement suits carers who have at least a year of professional care experience and want more control than agency shifts allow. You’ll need an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We do not list a single post here — these are ongoing self-employed opportunities across Kentish Town and nearby areas of Camden for people ready to take charge of their own schedules.
Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, upload your documents and references, and our team will start verification — profiles typically go live within days once checks are complete. You remain free to accept or decline any client introductions we send, so you can keep your diary exactly as you want it.
