Description
If you’re an experienced carer in Ward End who prefers hands-on daytime visits and local, predictable work, PrimeCarers could be the change you’ve been looking for. We connect self-employed carers directly with families needing help at home — personal care, meal support, medication prompts and errands — while you stay in control of the clients you accept and the hours you work.
Right now, 27 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Typical visits are short, regular daytime calls in people’s own homes across Ward End and nearby neighbourhoods. You’ll help with personal care (washing, dressing and toileting), prompting or supporting with medicines, preparing meals and light errands such as shopping or attending appointments. This work suits someone who values continuity of care, who wants to build respectful relationships with the people they support, and who prefers the variety and autonomy of visiting care rather than shift-based roles. Many of our carers choose to focus on particular streets or blocks in Ward End so travel fits around their day.
As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rate and choose your clients, hours and service area — typical pay falls in the range £18.50–£20 per hour. You’ll be able to list the hours you want, accept single visits or regular rounds, and change your availability as life demands. PrimeCarers handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work, so you can focus on care rather than paperwork. You can expect to see listings across Ward End and the wider West Midlands area.
To join we ask for at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We don’t place you with a family until checks and references are confirmed. You remain self-employed at all times and free to manage your diary and commitments as you choose.
Applying takes minutes: complete a short profile, upload your documents and references, and we’ll verify everything. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, and then you can start choosing the visits that suit you. If you work around Washwood Heath, Hodge Hill, Little Bromwich, Bromford, Stechford or Alum Rock you’ll find local opportunities close to home. Ready to work on your terms in Ward End?
