Dementia Carer Jobs in Surrey Quays

Are you an experienced carer in Surrey Quays who prefers the calm of home care and the routines that help people with dementia live well? PrimeCarers connects self‑employed carers with families across Surrey Quays and Southwark who need patient, consistent support at home. You’ll work to preserve familiar surroundings, small routines and comforting faces while keeping clients safe and respected. Right now, 147 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Work typically involves companionship, personal care, supporting daily routines, prompting medication, and helping families maintain a predictable day. Many families prefer carers who can keep the same times each day and who understand how small, steady gestures reduce anxiety for someone living with dementia. You’ll often support people in their own homes in Surrey Quays, and sometimes in neighbouring areas such as Rotherhithe, Millwall, Canary Wharf, Isle of Dogs, Wapping and Deptford.

This page advertises ongoing self‑employed opportunities, not one specific post. As a carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rate and choose clients, hours and service area. Typical pay guidance is shown on profiles: £18.89–£21 per hour. For more detail you may also see typical ranges like £18.89–£21 per hour for hourly care and £148–£164 per day for live‑in days.

PrimeCarers finds clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work. That means less admin for you and more time doing the hands‑on care you prefer. If you are used to agency rotas but want greater control over the families you work with and the hours you accept, this platform is built for that move.

Who this suits: carers who have patience, good observational skills, and experience supporting people living with dementia at home. You’ll do best if you value routine, know how to reduce distress through environment and pacing, and can communicate clearly with family members. Many carers joining from agencies find they can keep similar hours but with better continuity for the person they support.

Requirements to join are straightforward: at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), and verifiable references. Applying takes minutes and your profile typically goes live within days of verification.

To apply, create your profile, upload references and any relevant training, and choose the areas you want to work in around Surrey Quays. Once verified, PrimeCarers will introduce you to families looking for dementia care at home—letting you pick the roles that fit your approach and life.
