Description

PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers with families in Westerham who need daytime visiting care. You’ll carry out hourly home visits to support people with personal care, meal preparation, medication prompts and light errands, working in their own homes and keeping continuity of care. As a visiting carer you decide which clients and hours suit you, and you set your own rates. £18.89–£21 per hour

Right now, 65 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This kind of work suits experienced carers who want a clearer work-life balance and more control than they get through large agencies. If you’re used to providing sensitive, respectful support during daytime visits — helping people get up and dressed, preparing lunches, supporting mobility, accompanying short outings or picking up prescriptions — you’ll find many matches across Westerham and surrounding communities. We also cover neighbouring areas such as Sundridge, Aperfield, Cudham, Biggin Hill, Downe and Edenbridge, and across Kent more widely.

PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles the paperwork: contracts, invoicing and payments are taken care of, and insurance is included while you’re working on an assignment through the platform. You remain self-employed, choose the bookings you accept, and manage your diary directly with families. Many carers appreciate the simplicity of one place to manage introductions and payments while staying in control of the care they deliver.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this if you don’t already have one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We don’t post one-off shifts — we advertise ongoing self-employed opportunities so you can build steady relationships with families.

Applying takes minutes: fill out a short profile, upload ID and references, and complete verification. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, and then you can start choosing clients and hours that fit your life. If you’re thinking of leaving agency work or want to top up your hours around other commitments, PrimeCarers gives you the flexibility to design your own week while keeping paperwork and payments simple.

If you’d like to work as a visiting carer in Westerham, prepare your references and DBS (or ask us for help), and start an application. The process is quick, straightforward and built for experienced carers who want more control without the admin.
