You’ll help people stay in familiar surroundings, keep routines and offer patient, consistent care — working on terms that suit you. Right now, 3 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Typical roles include companionship, supporting daily routines, prompting medication, meal assistance and helping maintain familiarity through conversation and activities. Care can be short visits, regular hourly support or live-in assistance; typical rates fall within £19–£22 per hour, with more detailed ranges shown as £19–£22 per hour for hourly care and £145–£160 per day for live-in days.

This work suits carers who value continuity and relationship-based practice. If you prefer to support people in their own homes rather than rota-driven settings, and you bring patience, a focus on routine and the ability to adapt to changing memory and communication, you’ll find the work rewarding. Many carers choose to cover Swindon and the surrounding towns, reaching families across Wiltshire and nearby areas such as Royal Wootton Bassett, Highworth, Cricklade, Marlborough, Fairford and Lechlade.

As a PrimeCarers self-employed carer you choose your clients, the hours you accept and your service area. PrimeCarers does the client introductions and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and we provide insurance cover while you are working through the platform. You set your own rates and control your schedule, making it easier to balance life commitments and meaningful dementia work.

To join you must have at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We do not recruit for one-off roles — our platform advertises ongoing, self-employed opportunities so you can build steady, locally based relationships. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

If you’re an experienced carer in Swindon looking to move away from agency constraints, PrimeCarers offers more control over who you work for and when.
