Visiting Carer Jobs in Longlands

Work as a visiting carer in Longlands delivering daytime personal care, mealtime support, medication prompts and small errands for people who prefer to stay at home. These roles suit experienced, compassionate carers who value direct relationships with families and more control over when and where they work. Right now, 188 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Typical visits are hourly home care during the day, helping with personal care, preparing meals, supporting mobility, reminding or assisting with medication and doing light errands such as shopping or collecting prescriptions. You’ll be supporting people in their own homes across Longlands and the surrounding area, and may work with people living in Greenwich on occasion.

This is genuine self-employed work: you set your own rates, choose the clients you accept and pick your hours and service area. Many carers move from agency roles to enjoy clearer boundaries and more flexibility while still getting client introductions and admin support. Typical rates fall within £18.80–£20 per hour and you decide the final rate for each client.

What we ask for

• At least one year of professional care experience.
• An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one).
• The right to work in the UK and verifiable references.

What PrimeCarers does for you

We find clients, handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance cover while you’re working with a client. That means you can focus on care while we take care of the paperwork and payments. You remain self-employed and in control of how many visits you take.

Applying takes minutes; profiles typically go live within days of verification. Once your profile is approved you can see available introductions in Longlands and nearby areas such as New Eltham, Sidcup, Lamorbey, Albany Park, Chislehurst and Mottingham and decide which clients to accept. You keep communication and scheduling straightforward, working directly with families you’ve chosen.

If you’re ready to leave the agency model behind and build a more flexible, self-directed care schedule in Longlands, creating a profile is quick and practical. Many carers find this model gives them better work-life balance, clearer pay decisions and closer relationships with the people they support.
