Description

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers in Preesall with local families who need daytime hourly home care. You’ll be helping people stay independent in their own homes with personal care, preparing meals, supporting with medication and running essential errands. Work is typically short visits or block daytime visits covering personal care, companionship and practical support around the house. These are ongoing self-employed opportunities across Preesall and the surrounding area, not a single vacancy. Right now, 8 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This kind of role suits carers with at least a year’s professional experience who want more control than agency life usually allows. As a PrimeCarers carer you set your own rates, choose which clients you’ll work with and decide the hours and service area you cover — whether you want to work across Preesall only or travel to nearby towns such as Fleetwood, Thornton Cleveleys, Cleveleys, Poulton le Fylde, Blackpool and Garstang. You are self-employed and free to manage your diary, while PrimeCarers handles the paperwork that often eats into care time.

Typical pay for these roles is in the region of £19–£21.30 per hour depending on the support required and your experience. For clarity, typical hourly care is £19–£21.30 per hour and live-in day rates are £145–£160 per day. Work will usually involve personal care, meal support, prompting or administering medication (if you’re authorised to do so), light domestic tasks, shopping and errands, plus clear record-keeping and respectful, person-centred support.

PrimeCarers finds clients, manages contracts, raises invoices and handles payments on your behalf — and includes insurance while you’re working on a client booking. To join you must have at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you can be visible to families across Preesall and Lancashire quickly.

If you’re an experienced carer ready to move away from shift-driven agency routines and take control of the work you do, this is a practical route to flexible daytime visiting care. Create your profile, choose the clients that fit your values and availability, and build a self-employed care schedule that works around your life in Preesall. Apply now and be ready to accept bookings in days.
