PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers directly with families seeking live-in help. You choose your clients, the hours you accept and the service area you cover.

Tasks often include personal care, medication prompting, meal support, mobility assistance, light housekeeping related to care and providing companionship. You’ll be joining households in and around North Sheen and may cover nearby streets and communities in Richmond upon Thames.

To join you need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. PrimeCarers handles contracts, invoicing and payments for you, and provides insurance while you are working on placements. Because you’re self-employed you set your own schedule and can accept the placements that suit you.
