Hourly Care Assistant Jobs in Upton

You’ll be self-employed, pick the clients you work with and set your own availability and service area. Daytime hourly care roles here typically span personal care, companionship, light domestic help and support with meals and medication. Most carers on PrimeCarers set their own rates and the typical range is £18.50–£20 per hour for this kind of work. You may find shifts close to home in Upton or in nearby towns such as Wallasey, Hoylake, Birkenhead, Heswall, Bebington and Liverpool.

This way of working suits somebody who has genuine hands-on care experience, wants more control than agency life often allows, and prefers working directly with families while PrimeCarers handles the admin. You decide which visits to accept, what travel you’re willing to do and how many hours each week you take on.

PrimeCarers supports you — we find you clients, prepare contracts, take care of invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you’re working on a booked visit. That means less paperwork for you and clearer payments from families.

What we need from you:

• At least 1 year of professional care experience and verifiable references.
• The right to work in the UK.
• An Enhanced DBS check — PrimeCarers can help arrange one if needed.
