Description

Hour-by-hour home care across Osidge and the wider Enfield area: daytime visits to help people remain independent in their own homes with personal care, meals, medication prompts and short errands. You’ll visit clients in their houses for set periods, supporting everyday needs with dignity and warmth.

Right now, 214 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers directly with local families. You set your own rates and pick which clients, hours and service area suit you. We find clients, handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work. Applying takes minutes and most profiles go live within days of verification.

This work suits experienced carers who want to leave traditional agency routines and take more control over their work-life balance. If you value daytime shifts, predictable round-trip visits and building relationships with the same people in Osidge, you’ll find hourly care rewarding. Many carers choose to work across neighbouring towns too — Southgate, Arnos Grove, East Barnet, Barnet, Palmers Green and Brunswick Park — offering continuity for people who prefer carers from their local area.

Pay and flexibility: as a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own price within the local market. Typical rates for this kind of hourly home care fall around £18.80–£20 per hour and most carers use the £18.80–£20 per hour as a starting point when setting rates. You can accept only the daytime visits that suit you and manage your diary directly with clients.

What you’ll do: short daytime calls to help with personal care (washing, dressing), preparing meals, medication prompts, light domestic tasks and shopping or appointment runs. The focus is practical, compassionate support that helps people stay at home.

Who can apply:

  • At least 1 year of professional care experience
  • An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this)
  • The right to work in the UK
  • Verifiable references
