Description

If you’re an experienced carer looking to step away from agency rotas, PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers in Woking with families who need reliable daytime hourly home care. Typical visits include personal care, helping with meals, supporting with medication and short errands — all in clients' own homes. You choose the clients, hours and service area while we handle contracts, invoicing and payments; insurance is included while you work.

Right now, 81 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Day-to-day the role is straightforward: short daytime visits focused on personal care (washing, dressing, continence support where required), meal preparation, prompting or administering medication as agreed, companionship and running errands such as shopping or pharmacy trips. Most families want steady, kind carers who can bring consistency to a client’s day. Woking families appreciate punctual, practical support and many prefer carers who can stay for repeat daytime slots.

This way of working suits carers who value flexibility and direct relationships with families. As a self-employed carer with PrimeCarers you set your own fees and choose which clients to accept. Typical rates range between £18.80–£21.50 per hour depending on needs and experience. You can fit visits around family life, study or other commitments and cover parts of Woking and nearby areas like Castle Green, Ripley, Brooklands,, Chertsey, Guildford and Weybridge.

To join you need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. An Enhanced DBS check is also required; PrimeCarers can help arrange that for you. We also ask for clear references so families can trust who they invite into their homes.

PrimeCarers does the legwork: we find families, match you with suitable clients, manage contracts and take care of invoicing and payments so you can focus on care. Insurance is included while you are working on a job arranged through the platform. Applying takes minutes and your profile typically goes live within days of verification, so you can start seeing opportunities across Woking and elsewhere in Surrey quickly.

If you’re ready to keep the hands-on care you enjoy but take control of your hours and rates, it’s easy to get started. Create a profile, add your experience and references and we’ll be in touch about matching you with local families.
