Dementia Carer Jobs in Market Harborough

Work with people living with dementia in their own homes around Market Harborough, helping them keep routine, familiar surroundings and dignity. These are ongoing self-employed opportunities for carers who prefer continuity of support, patience and relationship-based care rather than short, fragmented shifts. Right now, 4 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Dementia care at home often focuses on predictable routines, gentle prompts and companionship as much as practical support. Typical tasks include helping with personal care, supporting daily routines, encouraging engagement in familiar activities, accompanying on short outings and liaising sensitively with families. You will be working with people who benefit from calm, consistent approaches and a carer who respects their pace and history.

PrimeCarers connects you directly with local families while you remain self-employed: you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and service area, and keep the continuity that matters in dementia support. Typical rates for these roles are £18.89–£21 per hour. PrimeCarers finds clients, manages contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you are working.

This kind of work suits experienced carers who value long-term, person-centred support. If you have at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS (we can help arrange this) and verifiable references, you can apply.
