Description
Companionship care in Whitehill focuses on conversation, reassurance, outings, shared hobbies and light help around the home. You’ll spend time talking, supporting daily routines and encouraging interests — walks, tea visits, crafts, reading or trips into town — rather than providing complex clinical tasks. Many families in and around Whitehill want someone steady, friendly and reliable to be company for their loved one. Right now, 17 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
This kind of work suits experienced carers who value meaningful one-to-one time and want to step away from agency shift rotas. As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rates and choose who you work with and when. Typical pay is £19–£22 per hour depending on what you offer and the hours you agree. You also choose your service area, so you can focus on Whitehill or travel to nearby places such as Bordon, Alton, Haslemere, Petersfield, Farnham and Midhurst.
PrimeCarers finds clients and handles the practical admin: we create and manage contracts, take care of invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you’re working with a family. That means less paperwork for you and more time with the people you care for. You remain independent: you’re self-employed, choose your hours and can accept or decline any client introduced through the platform.
To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We check documents to protect both carers and families. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you could be visible to local families in and around Whitehill quickly.
If you currently work for an agency and are thinking about a different way of working, PrimeCarers is built for that move: more control over your time, clearer admin support and the reassurance of insurance when you’re with clients. We cover carers across Hampshire and the surrounding towns, helping you build a regular, companionship-focused caseload that fits your lifestyle.
