Weekend Carer Jobs in Loddon

Are you an experienced carer in Loddon looking for flexible weekend or short-term respite work? PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers directly with families who need cover from a few hours up to a few days — perfect if you want to offer weekend support, short breaks or holiday cover while staying in control of your time. Right now, 4 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Respite care through PrimeCarers typically involves supporting families so their main carer can rest. Tasks can include personal care, companionship, medication prompting, light domestic tasks and keeping someone safe and comfortable while the family takes a break. You’ll meet each family before you commit, and you choose the level of responsibility you accept.

This work suits skilled, trusted carers who want the freedom to pick clients, hours and service area in and around Loddon. Many carers who leave agency work value being self-employed here: you set your own rates and availability, and can build ongoing weekend or occasional respite bookings that fit your life. Typical rates on the platform are £19–£22.40 per hour; carers commonly advertise within £19–£22.40 per hour for day shifts and £145–£160 per day for live-in days.

PrimeCarers handles the practical parts so you can focus on care. We find families, manage contracts, handle invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you’re working with a client. You remain self-employed at all times and can decide which offers to accept. We support you through the joining checks and can help organise an Enhanced DBS if needed.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS (we can assist) and verifiable references. We don’t ask you to accept shifts you don’t want and you’re free to set your own service area around Loddon and nearby towns such as Bungay, Beccles, Acle, Thorpe St Andrew, Norwich and Carlton Colville.

Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. Once live you’ll be able to review enquiries, agree terms directly with families and build regular weekend respite work if you choose. If you want more control over when and where you work in Loddon and elsewhere in Norfolk, PrimeCarers can help you make the switch without losing the support you need.

If this sounds like the kind of weekend respite work you want, create a profile and start choosing the families and shifts that fit your life in Loddon.
