Description

Join PrimeCarers as a self-employed private carer offering hourly daytime visits in Wimbledon and across Merton. You’ll help clients stay safe and comfortable at home with personal care, support with meals, medication prompts and errands — all the kind of practical, trusted help families need day-to-day. Right now, 209 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Daytime, hourly home care visits typically last from 30 minutes to a few hours and focus on personal care, mobility support, meal preparation, medication reminders, light domestic tasks and companionship. You’ll work directly with families in their homes, building relationships and tailoring support to each person’s routine and preferences. This is hands-on, meaningful work for carers who value continuity and dignity in care.

This platform suits experienced carers looking for more control than an agency role can offer. To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. An Enhanced DBS is required; PrimeCarers can help arrange one if you don’t already have it. You’ll be self-employed, which means you set your own rates, choose your clients and decide your working area.

Set the rate that reflects your experience and availability — many carers on the platform charge within £18.80–£20.30 per hour for hourly visits. You choose the hours that fit your life, whether you want a regular daytime run of clients around Wimbledon or a few flexible daytime visits each week in Merton.

PrimeCarers takes the admin off your plate: we find clients, manage contracts, handle invoicing and payments, and include insurance while you’re on a booked job. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. You can expect opportunities in Wimbledon and surrounding neighbourhoods such as Raynes Park, Motspur Park, Merton Park, South Wimbledon, Colliers Wood and Kingston Vale.

If you’re ready to move away from rigid rotas and agency shifts, this is a simple way to take more control of your work-life balance while staying focused on care. The application is quick — create a profile, add your experience and references, and we’ll guide you through verification. Families in Wimbledon are looking for reliable, experienced carers who can offer warm, skilled daytime support. If that sounds like you, set up your profile and start choosing the clients and hours that suit you.
