You choose the clients, the hours and the radius you’ll travel. Right now, 11 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
This kind of work suits carers who value variety and control. If you’re used to agency shifts but want to pick your own diary, keep hands-on care skills and build longer relationships with families, these ongoing visiting roles can be a good fit.

What you’ll be doing day to day: helping with personal care tasks such as washing and dressing, preparing simple meals, supporting medication routines, accompanying clients to appointments or doing small errands and offering companionship. Visits are usually daytime and can range from quick check-ins to longer calls depending on client needs in Sandwich and the surrounding Kent towns.
To join you must have at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We handle the paperwork so you can focus on care: PrimeCarers finds clients, manages contracts, invoices and payments, and provides insurance coverage while you’re working with a family.
- Minimum experience: 1 year in a care role
- Checks: Enhanced DBS (we can support the application)
- Eligibility: the right to work in the UK and references we can verify
Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, upload your references and DBS details (or start a DBS with our help) and we’ll verify you — profiles typically go live within days of verification. Once live you can start choosing local clients in Sandwich or towns nearby such as Minster, Deal, Ramsgate, Broadstairs, St. Peters and Westgate on Sea and set the hours that suit you.
