Companionship care here in Wombwell and across South Yorkshire is about being present: regular calls for a friendly chat, accompanying someone to appointments or the shops, helping a client keep up hobbies, or spending time with someone who feels isolated. These roles suit carers who enjoy building relationships, are patient, reliable and keen to offer emotional support as well as small practical tasks around the home.

Typical rates are £18.80–£20 per hour. As a self‑employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rates and choose which families and shifts to accept. You control your working area (we often place carers in and around Hoyland, Wath upon Dearne, Over Woodhouse, Barnsley, Brierley and Mexborough), so you can keep travel sensible and fit work around other commitments.

PrimeCarers takes care of the paperwork: we find clients, manage contracts, handle invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work. That means less admin for you and more time spending quality minutes with clients in Wombwell.

• Minimum experience: at least 1 year of professional care experience.
• Checks required: an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange one).
• Right to work: you must have the legal right to work in the UK and be able to provide verifiable references.

Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, upload your checks and references, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days — then you can start reviewing matches and choosing whom you want to work with. PrimeCarers supports you through verification and helps with DBS if needed.

If you’re an experienced carer thinking of moving away from agency routines, PrimeCarers gives you the freedom to run your own care work in Wombwell while keeping the important protections and admin support in place.
