Most respite roles are local to Motspur Park and the wider Kingston upon Thames area, and can include evening and weekend shifts as well as occasional day cover. You set your own hours, your service area and your rates — many carers choose to set rates within £18.80–£20.10 per hour depending on the support required. You can expect varied short-term assignments that suit carers who prefer flexibility rather than long-term placements.

Typical tasks include:

• Personal care and assistance with mobility
• Helping with meals, medication reminders and light domestic tasks
• Providing companionship and meaningful activity during daytime or evenings
• Short-term live-in support for families needing overnight respite (where requested)

This work suits experienced carers who value control over their work-life balance: people leaving agency shifts, those wanting weekend-only work, or anyone who prefers short assignments across Motspur Park and nearby areas like Raynes Park, New Malden, Wimbledon, Morden Park, Lower Morden and Old Malden. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you are working.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you can start seeing suitable respite opportunities quickly.

If you already work in the Kingston upon Thames area and want more flexibility, or if you’re new to private respite work but meet the requirements, PrimeCarers provides the platform and admin support so you can focus on care. Create a profile, choose the bookings you want and manage your diary — all while keeping the benefits of being self-employed.
