Hourly Care Assistant Jobs in Maryland

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self‑employed carers with families looking for daytime visits in their own homes across Maryland. If you already do personal care, help with meals, give medication prompts and run errands, this is a flexible way to take on work that fits your life — choosing the clients, hours and area you cover. Right now, 156 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

You’ll be offering hourly home care visits: assistance with washing and dressing, continence support, meal preparation, medication prompting and short errands such as shopping or post. Visits are typically daytime and aimed at helping people stay comfortable and independent at home. The work suits carers who prefer one-to-one support, enjoy building relationships and want to move away from rigid rotas.

Carers on PrimeCarers are self‑employed and set their own rates; many set fees within the typical range of £19–£21.30 per hour. You pick the clients you want to work with and the hours that suit you. PrimeCarers does the matching, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you are working with a client.

To join you need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check. If you don’t have an up‑to‑date DBS, PrimeCarers can help arrange one. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification — so you can start choosing work quickly.

This is an ongoing opportunity to offer hourly home care in Maryland and the surrounding area, not a single role. Many of our carers cover neighbouring communities such as Cann Hall, West Ham, Forest Gate, Hackney Wick, Hackney Marshes and Leytonstone. Whether you’re currently agency‑based and want more control over your working week, or you’re already self‑employed and looking for a steady stream of introductions, PrimeCarers makes it simpler to manage your own care work.

If you value flexibility, fair pay and being treated as a professional, creating a profile takes minutes. Once verified, you can begin receiving introductions, decide which clients to accept and invoice through the platform while PrimeCarers manages the admin side. Profiles typically go live within days of verification.
