Description
If you already support people living with dementia and prefer the calm of home-based work, Pwllheli families need compassionate, steady carers. This platform links self-employed carers directly with households who want continuity, routine and familiar surroundings for their loved ones. You choose the clients you want to work with, set your own rates and decide your hours and service area, while PrimeCarers finds the families and looks after contracts, invoicing, payments and provides insurance while you work.
New care jobs in the area are posted on PrimeCarers throughout the year.Work typically centres on keeping daily life predictable and comforting. That might mean supporting morning and evening routines, prompting medication, offering gentle companionship, helping with meals, assisting safe movement around the home, and using calming approaches when memory or behaviour changes cause distress. You will focus on preserving dignity and familiar rhythms, and on building trust so people living with dementia feel safe at home. Roles are in Pwllheli and the surrounding area, and often include nearby towns such as Nefyn, Criccieth, Porthmadog, Harlech, Caernarfon and Barmouth.
This opportunity suits experienced carers who value close relationships with clients and want more control than agency rounds allow. You must have at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. An Enhanced DBS is required; PrimeCarers can help arrange one if you need support. We do not advertise one single position here — this is an ongoing pool of self-employed opportunities across Pwllheli and nearby communities.
As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rates and decide which bookings to accept. Typical rate guidance appears on profiles as £15–£25 per hour. Profiles often show hourly and live-in ranges for reference such as £15–£25 per hour for hourly care and £145–£160 per day for live-in days. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments so you can focus on care. Insurance is included while you are working with a client through the platform. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
To apply, create a profile, add your experience and references, and indicate your service area and rates. If you need help with an Enhanced DBS, select the option and PrimeCarers will guide you through the process. Once verified, families in Pwllheli and nearby towns will be able to find you. If you are ready for more meaningful, consistent dementia work from people’s own homes and greater control over your working life, this could be the change you have been looking for.
