Description
If you’re an experienced carer looking to move away from agency shifts, PrimeCarers connects self‑employed care assistants with families in Millwall and the wider Tower Hamlets area. You’ll do daytime hourly home care visits: personal care, help with meals, medication prompts, companionship and errands so people can stay safe and independent in their own homes. Right now, 117 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
As a PrimeCarers carer you set your own rates and choose which clients, hours and service area suit you. Many carers working in Millwall find they can balance work around other commitments while keeping the variety of home visits they enjoy. Typical pay sits around £18.80–£20.50 per hour, but you decide your exact rate.
PrimeCarers finds clients and handles the contracts, invoicing and payments for you, and provides insurance cover while you’re working. You remain self‑employed — that means you control your diary and offer the services you’re comfortable with. Work in Millwall, or nearby areas such as Canary Wharf, Isle of Dogs, Surrey Quays, Cubitt Town, Rotherhithe and Blackwall to expand your options.
Who this suits: experienced care assistants used to delivering personal care and household support during daytime visits. If you’re used to agency work but want more control over which clients you visit, when you work, and how much you charge, this role is a natural step. You’ll need the practical skills to support personal care, medication prompts, meal preparation and light errands, plus the communication skills to build trusting relationships with clients and families.
