Description

Supporting people living with dementia at home takes patience, steadiness and a feel for routine. On PrimeCarers you’ll work with families in Raynes Park to keep clients comfortable in familiar surroundings — helping with personal care, mealtimes, medication prompts, meaningful activities and companionship. You’ll focus on maintaining routine, reducing disorientation and promoting independence wherever possible. Right now, 220 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This is ongoing, self-employed work across Raynes Park and the wider area including Motspur Park, Wimbledon, Morden Park, Merton Park, Lower Morden and New Malden. Carers set their own approach and rates and often build regular shifts that suit both them and the family. Typical pay sits around £18.80–£20.20 per hour, but you decide your exact rates, the hours you accept and the area you cover.

Who this suits: experienced carers who understand how dementia affects memory, behaviour and communication. You’ll have at least one year of professional care experience and be used to working with sensitive situations calmly. Families value carers who bring patience, a steady routine, gentle reassurance and practical skills for safe personal care and household support.

How PrimeCarers helps: we introduce you to families and handle contracts, invoicing and payments so you can focus on care. Insurance is included while you work on assignments arranged through the platform. You remain self-employed — you choose clients, hours and service area, and you set your own rates. PrimeCarers can also help you arrange an Enhanced DBS check if you need one.

Joining is straightforward. You’ll need the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. The practical checks are: at least one year’s relevant experience, an Enhanced DBS (we can assist), the right to work in the UK and referees who can confirm your recent care experience. Creating a profile takes minutes, and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

If you’re thinking of moving away from agency routines and want control over who you work with and when, PrimeCarers can help you build a steady local caseload in Raynes Park and nearby neighbourhoods in Merton. Start by creating your profile — it’s quick, and you remain in control of every booking you accept.
