Description

If you already provide compassionate, reliable hourly home care and want more control over your working life, PrimeCarers can help you find daytime visits around Walmley.

This work suits experienced carers who value variety and independence. You’ll choose the clients you accept, the hours you work and the area you cover, and you set your own rates. Typical pay on the platform is £18.50–£20 per hour for hourly care, but you decide what works for you.

PrimeCarers finds you clients and takes care of the practical side: client introductions, written contracts, invoicing and secure payments. Insurance is included while you work through the platform. That means you can focus on delivering great care without handling every back-office task yourself. We support carers across Walmley and the wider West Midlands, helping to match the kind of visits you prefer with families who need daytime help.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange one if you need it), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
