Description
PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families across Nairn for hourly daytime home care. You’ll visit clients in their own homes to help with personal care, meal preparation, medication prompts, shopping or errands, and everyday companionship. You choose which clients to accept, the hours you work and the area you cover, letting you build continuity and meaningful relationships while keeping control of your working life.
There is 1 family currently looking for care in the wider area.
Typical day-to-day support includes:
- Personal care such as washing, dressing and mobility assistance;
- Practical help with meals, light household tasks and errands;
- Medication support (prompting and safe recording) and communicating changes to families;
- Companionship and supporting people to stay active in their community.
This work suits carers with at least a year’s professional care experience who want to step away from rota-driven agency life and take more control. Many carers on PrimeCarers move from agency work to manage their own hours and clients in and around Nairn and nearby towns such as Cromarty, Forres, Fortrose, Invergordon, Inverness and Alness.
Pay is flexible because you set your own rates; typical roles fall within £18.80–£20 per hour. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you are working, so you can focus on care rather than admin.
To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help with this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We’ll verify your documentation and references quickly: applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
Applying is straightforward. Create a profile, specify the hours and neighbourhoods in Nairn you want to work, upload your references and any certificates, and choose how you want to be contacted by families. Once verified, you’ll start receiving enquiries and can accept only the clients that suit you. If you’re an experienced carer who wants more autonomy, better continuity of care and straightforward admin support, PrimeCarers makes it practical to work on your terms in Nairn.
