This opportunity is for experienced, self‑employed carers who want more control than agency work normally gives. On PrimeCarers you set your own rates and choose which clients, hours and service area you accept — many carers in the area set competitive rates in line with £18.80–£22 per hour. You can focus on hourly home care visits in Tredegar, or extend your service area to nearby towns like Tafarnaubach, Ebbw Vale, Brynmawr, Blaina, Abertillery and Crickhowell. Blaenau Gwent clients are regularly posted on the platform alongside local Tredegar requests.

Typical daytime duties include assisting with personal care, supporting mobility, preparing meals, helping with medication prompts, light household tasks and short errands such as shopping or collecting prescriptions. Visits vary in length so the role suits carers who want flexibility between morning and afternoon calls and who enjoy building longer term relationships with people at home.

To join you must have at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. An Enhanced DBS check is required; PrimeCarers can help arrange this for you. PrimeCarers also finds clients for you and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you are working on bookings arranged through the platform.
