As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rates and choose the clients, hours and service area that suit you. Typical pay sits around £145–£160 per day, with short-term hourly care commonly in the range of £19–£21.30 per hour and full live-in days usually shown as £145–£160 per day. PrimeCarers introduces you to families, handles the contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work, so you can focus on care rather than paperwork.

This type of role suits carers who have at least one year of professional care experience, verifiable references and the right to work in the UK. You’ll also need an Enhanced DBS check — PrimeCarers can help arrange this if you don’t already have one. Living with a client means being comfortable with round-the-clock responsibility, supporting personal care, mealtimes, medication prompts, companionship and household routines, while taking agreed breaks and maintaining professional boundaries.

With PrimeCarers you decide the service area you’ll accept; some carers take roles near home in Preesall and nearby towns like Fleetwood, Thornton Cleveleys, Cleveleys, Poulton le Fylde, Blackpool and Garstang, while others travel from further afield for longer placements.
