Visiting Carer Jobs in Penarth

PrimeCarers connects self‑employed carers with families in Penarth and the Vale of Glamorgan for daytime visiting care. You’ll deliver person‑centred support in clients’ homes — personal care, meal preparation, medication prompts, companionship and errands — visiting for short calls or longer daytime slots as you prefer.

Right now, 3 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This role suits experienced, confident carers who want to leave agency rotas behind and work on their own terms in Penarth. As self‑employed practitioners you set your own fees and choose the clients, hours and service area that fit your life. Typical rates fall in £18.50–£22 per hour and you can expect to see ranges for hourly care and day/live‑in work shown as £18.50–£22 per hour and £145–£160 per day on your profile.

PrimeCarers finds enquiries, handles the contracts, raises invoices and manages payments for you, and we include insurance while you’re working with a client. That means you can focus on care — building trusted relationships in Penarth, across the Vale of Glamorgan and nearby areas such as Grangetown, Barry, Weston Otmoor, Weston super Mare, Llantrisant and Cowbridge — without getting bogged down by admin.

To join you need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We do check these before profiles go live because families rely on consistent, safe support. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

Getting started is practical and straightforward. Create a clear profile describing your experience and the kind of visits you’re happy to do. Be honest about the hours you can offer and any specialist experience (dementia, diabetes support, post‑operative care, mobility assistance). Then review client requests and accept only the bookings that suit you.

Working with PrimeCarers in Penarth gives you the autonomy to balance work and life while still being part of a supported network. You decide your availability, keep more of what you earn and build long‑term local relationships. If you’re ready to work differently in Penarth — with control over your rates and roster and admin handled for you — it takes just minutes to apply and start being matched with local families.
