Description

PrimeCarers connects self-employed visiting carers with families in Kingsteignton and the surrounding area. These are ongoing self-employed opportunities for daytime, hourly home care: short visits to help with personal care, meals, medication prompts and errands so people can stay comfortable and independent at home. Right now, 3 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Work here suits experienced carers who want more control than agency shifts normally allow. You choose which clients to accept, set your own hours and work within the service area you prefer. You also set your own rates — many carers use £19–£24.50 per hour as a guide when listing what they charge. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you are working.

Typical daytime duties include:

  • Personal care such as washing, dressing and mobility support during short visits;
  • Meal support including cooking, preparing light meals and mealtime assistance;
  • Medication prompts and ensuring medicines are taken as required (you do not administer controlled medication unless you are trained and agreed with the client);
  • Errands and companionship — shopping, appointments and social support to keep clients connected to their community.

To join you need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We do not list one-off shifts here: these are ongoing self-employed roles that you can build into a regular diary. Applying takes minutes; once your documents are verified profiles typically go live within days.

Many carers find moving to self-employed visiting work offers better work-life balance and clearer control over who they support. You will manage your diary, confirm fees directly on your PrimeCarers profile and only accept bookings that suit you. PrimeCarers supports you with contracts, client introductions and payments so you can focus on care.

If you live in or around Kingsteignton — and often in nearby towns such as Newton Abbot, Chudleigh, Teignmouth, Bovey Tracey, Dawlish and Torquay — you can set the area you cover and the number of visits you want each week. PrimeCarers works across Devon and helps experienced carers move from agency routines to a more flexible, self-directed way of working. If that sounds like the next step, it really only takes minutes to apply and start building a profile.
