Description
PrimeCarers connects self‑employed carers with families in Norbury looking for daytime hourly visits. You’ll be helping clients stay safe and comfortable at home with personal care, meal support, medication prompts and light errands — short visits or longer daytime shifts depending on what you choose. We advertise ongoing opportunities across Norbury and Croydon; you pick the clients and hours that suit you.
Right now, 222 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
If you want to move away from agency rotas and paperwork, PrimeCarers puts you in control. Carers set their own rates, choose their own clients, hours and service area, and can often work around school runs, college or other commitments. Many carers set rates within £18.80–£20 per hour and tailor visits to match the level of support they provide.
PrimeCarers handles the hard parts: we find clients, arrange contracts, invoice and collect payments, and provide insurance while you’re working with a client we’ve introduced. That means you spend more time providing care in Norbury and less time on admin in the evening.
This work suits experienced, compassionate people who value autonomy. Typical daytime tasks include helping with personal care (washing, dressing, toileting), preparing meals, prompting or giving medication (where trained and agreed), companionship and errands like shopping or posting letters. You’ll often be supporting people who want to remain in their own homes rather than move into care.
To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. An Enhanced DBS is required; PrimeCarers can help arrange one if you don’t already have it. You’re responsible for your own tax and National Insurance as a self‑employed carer, and for maintaining any required professional registrations.
We cover a flexible area across south Croydon and nearby suburbs — you can pick how far you travel and which streets you work in. You’ll find opportunities in Norbury and neighbouring areas such as Thornton Heath, Streatham, West Norwood, Selhurst, Crystal Palace and Upper Norwood. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you can start seeing client matches quickly.
If you’re ready to take control of your care work in Norbury, set your rates and pick the hours that suit your life, create a profile with PrimeCarers today and we’ll guide you through verification and getting your first client matches.
