Companionship Carer Jobs in Waltham Cross

If you enjoy conversation, outings and gentle support around the home, PrimeCarers has ongoing self-employed companionship roles across Waltham Cross. You'll be supporting people who mainly need company and reassurance — helping with hobbies, trips out, light household tasks and being a steady presence. Right now, 173 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

These roles suit experienced carers who want more control than agency work gives. Carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed: you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and service area, and keep the flexibility to work how you prefer in Waltham Cross and nearby towns such as Freezywater, Cheshunt, Enfield Lock, Bulls Cross, Enfield Wash and Waltham Abbey. Typical rates are £18.80–£20 per hour.

What the work often involves:

• Friendly conversation and companionship at home or on short outings.
• Supporting hobbies, games, walks or local trips in Waltham Cross and the surrounding Hertfordshire area.
• Light help around the home — making drinks, simple meal prep, prompting medication (not administering), and ensuring the person feels safe and reassured.

PrimeCarers handles client matching, contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work. You remain self-employed and responsible for your own tax and National Insurance affairs. Applying takes minutes, and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

Requirements to join are straightforward: at least 1 year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS (we can help arrange this if needed), the right to work in the UK, and verifiable references. We check these so families can trust the carers they choose, and so you can be listed quickly and professionally.
