Description

Looking for companionship care work in Roehampton and the Wandsworth area that lets you keep control? Our platform connects self‑employed carers with families seeking friendly, reliable companions — people who can offer conversation, local outings, help with hobbies and light support around the home. Roles are for ongoing companion support rather than one‑off calls. Right now, 161 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Companionship work is about presence and reassurance. Typical visits include chatting over tea, joining a walk in the local park, going to shops or community groups, helping with small household tasks and keeping an eye on comfort and mood. You’ll get to build longer‑term relationships rather than short agency shifts, and you can tailor visits to the person’s interests — music, gardening, cards or local outings in Roehampton and nearby areas like Kingston Vale, Putney, Southfields, East Sheen, Mortlake and North Sheen.

If you’re ready to move away from traditional agency routines, this could suit you. As a self‑employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rates and choose which clients, hours and service area you accept. Typical pay falls in the range £19–£21.50 per hour and you keep control of how you work. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and insurance is included while you work.

To join you’ll need:

  • At least one year of professional care experience.
  • An Enhanced DBS check — we can help arrange this if you don’t already have one.
  • The right to work in the UK and verifiable references from recent employers or clients.

Applying takes only minutes. Create a profile, upload your documents and references, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days — then you can start reviewing client requests in Roehampton and greater Wandsworth.

We’re honest about what we offer: ongoing, self‑employed companionship opportunities rather than a fixed post. If you value flexible hours, closer relationships with people you support, and less admin, PrimeCarers handles the paperwork so you can focus on care. Your next chapter in Roehampton could mean quieter travel, more meaningful visits and the freedom to choose the work you want.
