Day-to-day you might be helping with personal care, prompting medication, maintaining routines, companionship, light meal prep and supporting meaningful activity.

PrimeCarers makes the admin simple so you can focus on care. Carers on the platform are self-employed and set their own rates; many earn within £18.89–£20.50 per hour depending on the work they take. You choose your clients, the hours you’ll work and your own service area — whether you prefer jobs in town or in the surrounding villages such as Bedale, Thirsk, Colburn, Yarm, Masham and Eaglescliffe. For reference we also list typical ranges like £18.89–£20.50 per hour for hourly care and £145.50–£160 per day for live-in day rates when relevant.

Who this suits: experienced carers who want more control than traditional agency work — people who value routine, continuity and building trust with clients living with dementia. You should be calm under pressure, observant of changing needs and comfortable supporting daily routines that reduce confusion and promote independence.

Minimum requirements to join PrimeCarers are at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. PrimeCarers handles client matching plus contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you’re working through the platform. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, and applying takes only minutes.
