Description

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families who want dementia support at home in Stockwell and the wider Lambeth area. Work that focuses on patience, routine and keeping clients in familiar surroundings is what most families ask for. Right now, 161 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

What the role involves: supporting people living with dementia in their own homes—helping with daily routines, companionship, gentle prompting, observational care and supporting familiar habits. You’ll be helping people stay comfortable and safe in the place they know best, often building continuity of care that agency shifts can’t provide. Many assignments are in private homes around Stockwell and nearby neighbourhoods including Westside, Brixton, Oval, Clapham, Nine Elms and Battersea Park.

Who this suits: carers who already have at least a year of professional care experience and who prefer to work independently, build relationships and use their skills to follow consistent routines. If you value dignity, small practical adaptations and patient communication, these opportunities are tailored to your strengths. Many carers moving from agency work tell us they appreciate the predictability and relationship focus when supporting someone with dementia in their own home in Stockwell.

Pay and flexibility: carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed, set their own rates and choose their clients, hours and service area. Typical rates for this type of work are £19–£21.50 per hour depending on hours and the level of support required. PrimeCarers finds families, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work—so you can focus on care, not paperwork.

Requirements to join: you need a minimum of one year’s professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this) and verifiable references. We do not list a single vacancy here: these are ongoing self-employed opportunities across Stockwell and Lambeth, giving you choice over the work you accept.

How to apply: creating a profile takes minutes and we verify references and checks quickly. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, and then we’ll let you know about suitable families in and around Stockwell. If you’re ready to keep people with dementia living at home with kindness and consistency, join PrimeCarers and take control of the hours and clients you want to work with.
