Description
Are you an experienced carer in Northolt looking for more control over your work? PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers with families across Northolt and Hillingdon for daytime hourly visits — helping with personal care, preparing meals, supporting medication routines and running errands in clients' own homes. You choose who you work with, when you work and the area you cover.
Right now, 200 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Hourly home care on PrimeCarers is focused on flexible daytime visits. Typical tasks include assisting with washing and dressing, support with mobility and transfers, meal preparation and feeding, prompting or administering medication according to instructions, light household tasks and shopping or appointment runs. Visits vary by client and are arranged to suit both carer and family. These are ongoing self-employed opportunities rather than single advertised posts.
This role suits experienced, compassionate carers who prefer smaller caseloads, predictable daytime hours and direct relationships with families. If you are used to agency life but want to set your own working pattern, PrimeCarers makes the transition straightforward. You set your own rates (many carers work within £18.80–£20.50 per hour), choose your clients and control your availability. For clarity, the platform often lists typical hourly roles at £18.80–£20.50 per hour and occasional live-in day work at £145–£160 per day.
PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments on your behalf, and includes insurance while you are on a booked visit. That means less paperwork and more time doing the work you enjoy. You remain self-employed and responsible for your tax and National Insurance, but you benefit from the platform's admin support so you can focus on care.
To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one) and verifiable references. We verify profiles quickly — applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. You can set your service area to cover Northolt and nearby towns such as Brompton, South Ruislip, Greenford, South Harrow, Yeading and Rayners Lane.
We’re looking for reliable, respectful carers who value autonomy and clear, trustworthy arrangements. If you want daytime hourly work in Northolt with the backing of an admin and payments service in Hillingdon and beyond, PrimeCarers could be the right move.
