Weekend Carer Jobs in Midhurst

Help families in Midhurst and the surrounding area with short-term respite and weekend cover — from a few hours to a few days. You’ll support people at home, giving family carers a break and offering companionship, personal care, medication prompts and household support when needed across Midhurst and nearby towns such as Petworth, Haslemere, Lodge Hill, Petersfield, Whitehill and Bordon in West Sussex. Right now, 16 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This is an ongoing, self-employed route to respite work. You set your own hours, pick the families you want to work with and choose your service area around Midhurst. Many carers who switch from agency roles value the control and clarity: you decide which shifts to accept, and you set your own rate within the typical range of £18.80–£22.50 per hour.

Typical respite tasks include personal care, mobilising, companionship, preparing light meals, supporting routines and short stays to give primary carers a break. Weekend and short-break bookings often suit carers who want concentrated, meaningful shifts rather than regular long-term live-in placements. You may be asked to cover evenings, weekends or short daytime stays; every booking is arranged with the family and confirmed before you accept.
