Description

Join PrimeCarers as a self-employed private carer offering hourly daytime home care in Tisbury and the surrounding parts of Wiltshire. You’ll support people in their own homes with personal care, meals, medication prompts and local errands — short visits, regular calls or a weekly rota, depending on what you and the family agree. You set your own hours, choose which clients to work with and decide how far you’ll travel.

Right now, 3 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Work here suits experienced carers who value autonomy and a closer working relationship with families. If you’ve done at least a year of professional care, have the right to work in the UK, and can provide verifiable references, you’re eligible to apply. An Enhanced DBS is required; PrimeCarers can help arrange this if you need it. We don’t post one-off roles — this page advertises ongoing self-employed opportunities across Tisbury and nearby towns such as Shaftesbury, Mere, Wilton, Warminster, Salisbury and Sturminster Newton.

Rates are set by carers themselves, and many who join PrimeCarers quote within £19.20–£23 per hour depending on client needs and travel. You can choose to offer short hourly visits or longer daytime sessions; typical billing brackets include £19.20–£23 per hour for hourly care and £148–£164 per day for extended daytime coverage, though your own rates are for you to set. PrimeCarers takes care of client-finding, contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you are working.

We aim to make joining straightforward. The application takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you can start choosing work quickly. Once on the platform you’ll see families looking for trusted local carers; you decide which introductions to accept and when you’re available. Many carers who move away from agency work appreciate the clearer records, direct relationships with families and flexibility that PrimeCarers supports.

Practical things to note: you must have at least one year’s professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check (we can assist). As a self-employed carer you’ll manage your schedule and clients directly; PrimeCarers handles the admin — contracts, invoices and secure payments — and includes insurance while you work on a placement arranged through us.

If you’re based in Tisbury or travel from nearby Wiltshire towns and want to work more independently while keeping administrative support, this could be the right move. Apply now — it takes only minutes to create a profile and, after verification, your profile can go live within days so you can start connecting with local families.
