Dementia Carer Jobs in Kidbrooke

Work with people living with dementia in Kidbrooke. If you prefer home-based care that values routine, familiar surroundings and patience, PrimeCarers connects experienced self-employed carers with families across Kidbrooke and the wider Lewisham area. You set your own hours, choose your clients and decide your rates — many carers charge within £19–£21.30 per hour. Right now, 161 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

The role is ongoing, supporting people at home rather than a single shift. Typical tasks include gentle personal care and continence support where needed, prompting medication and meals, maintaining routines, reassuring and reorienting, encouraging meaningful activities, light household tasks and safe, escorted community trips. You’ll also keep clear notes for families and professionals and raise any concerns about changes in mood, behaviour or health. These roles suit carers who prefer building relationships over time, who are calm under pressure and who value working in familiar surroundings for the person in their care.

PrimeCarers is made for experienced carers moving away from agency life. As a self-employed carer on our platform you:

• Choose your clients, hours and service area — work in Kidbrooke or nearby areas like Blackheath, Blackheath Royal Standard, Maze Hill, Hither Green, Horn Park and Westcombe Park.
• Set your own rates and availability; many carers use £19–£21.30 per hour for hourly care or £148–£165 per day for live-in support as a guide.
• Keep your independence while we find clients, manage contracts, invoicing and payments for you.
• Have insurance included while you work through PrimeCarers, so you can focus on care.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this) and verifiable references. We don’t list a single shift here — we advertise ongoing self-employed opportunities across Kidbrooke and surrounding streets. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days once your documents are verified.

If you’re thinking of moving from agency work to something more flexible and personal in Kidbrooke or elsewhere in Lewisham, creating a profile is the first step. You remain in control of your work, rates and routine, while PrimeCarers handles the admin that can keep you from the care you want to give.
