Description

Looking for flexible respite work in North Camp that fits around your life? PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers directly with local families who need short-term and weekend cover — from a few hours to a few days. You choose the clients, hours and service area, and you set your own rate within £19–£22 per hour. Right now, 26 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Respite care roles are varied. One family may need a few hours on a Saturday to give a family carer a break, another may want overnight support for a couple of nights while a carer recovers. You’ll provide companionship, personal care, medication prompting if required, and practical support so family carers can rest, run errands or travel. Most of the work is in people’s homes across North Camp and nearby, including Farnborough, Aldershot, Blackwater and Hawley, Fleet, Camberley and Farnham.

This work suits experienced, compassionate carers who prefer more control than agencies typically allow. If you’ve done at least one year of professional care work and want to reduce the bureaucracy of shifts while keeping flexible hours around family or other commitments, respite cover on PrimeCarers could be a good fit. Many carers use it to supplement agency shifts or move fully to self-employed work while keeping their independence in North Camp and elsewhere in Hampshire.

Pay and practicals: carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates. Typical ranges you’ll see are £19–£22 per hour for hourly care and £148–£165 per day for live-in day rates, with most adverts showing guides within £19–£22 per hour. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you work.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. Applying takes minutes; most profiles go live within days of verification. You remain free to accept or decline any booking and to manage your diary locally in North Camp.

How to apply: create your profile, upload a copy of your DBS and references (or request help getting a DBS), and set your service area and rates. Once verified, families in North Camp and surrounding towns can view and book you directly. If you’re ready to keep the care you give hands-on and flexible, PrimeCarers makes it straightforward to begin offering respite cover in your community.
