Dementia Support Carer Jobs in Stratford

We’re looking for experienced, compassionate carers to support people living with dementia in their own homes across Stratford and the surrounding area. This work focuses on keeping routines steady, using familiar surroundings and patient conversation to reduce stress and confusion. You’ll be working with people who benefit from predictable daily rhythms, gentle prompting, companionship and practical support with personal care, meals and medication reminders. Right now, 13 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates. Carers choose their own clients, hours and service area, so you can build a programme of support that fits your life in Stratford and nearby towns. PrimeCarers finds carers clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while they work. This page advertises ongoing self-employed opportunities, not a single role.

Typical work includes building trust over repeated visits, following agreed routines, recording observations and liaising with families. You’ll need patience, good listening skills and experience working with people living with memory loss. Many carers who move from agency work tell us they value being able to spend more focussed time with clients and to work with fewer last-minute changes.

Pay is set by you and often falls within £18.50–£20 per hour depending on client needs and the level of support. You can accept short visits, longer shifts or live-in arrangements as suits you and the household. If you want to range across Stratford, you might also support families in Stratford upon Avon, Alcester, Henley in Arden, Warwick, Austin Village and Whitnash.

To join you must have at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one). Applying takes minutes; profiles typically go live within days of verification. We’ll verify references and checks, and once approved you can start choosing clients and setting your availability.

If you already work in dementia care in Stratford or elsewhere in Warwickshire and want more control over your working pattern, PrimeCarers can help you move to self-employed work without having to handle contracts or invoicing yourself. Create a profile, complete verification and start connecting with families who want consistent, respectful dementia support at home.
