Description
PrimeCarers is connecting self-employed carers with families in Y Felinheli who need short-term respite and weekend cover. The work ranges from a few hours to a few days: providing companionship, personal care, medication prompts and household support so family carers can rest. You’ll be choosing the assignments you want, deciding how far you’ll travel across Anglesey and nearby areas, and setting the standards of care you’re proud of. There is 1 family currently looking for care in the wider area.
Respite work is ideal if you’re used to flexible patterns or are thinking about moving away from agency rota models. Typical assignments include overnight stays, day-time weekend shifts, or short block bookings over a few days. Many carers on the platform set their own rates and offer both hourly and short live-in options; the typical pay seen on the platform is £18.50–£18.80 per hour. You can accept jobs in Y Felinheli itself or across nearby towns such as Llanfairpwllgwyngyll, Menai Bridge, Caernarfon, Bangor, Llanberis and Llangefni.
What makes PrimeCarers different is that you stay fully self-employed and in control. You choose your clients, hours and service area; PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you work. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you can be visible to local families quickly.
To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange one), and verifiable references. We don’t ask you to sign long-term commitments — you accept the respite jobs that suit you and your life. Many carers who switch to PrimeCarers value the predictability of choosing weekend work around family commitments, while still keeping the variety of short-term placements.
If you worry about paperwork, we manage the business side: client matching, contracts, invoicing and secure payments, plus insurance cover for shifts taken through the platform. You remain self-employed and set the rates that reflect your experience and availability — whether you prefer ad-hoc weekend cover, regular short blocks, or occasional live-in support at agreed daily rates such as £145–£160 per day and hourly ranges like £18.50–£18.80 per hour.
Joining is straightforward. Create a profile, share your experience and checks, choose the kinds of respite work you’ll accept around Y Felinheli and elsewhere on Anglesey, and start reviewing matches. If you’d like to talk first, our onboarding team can answer questions and guide you through the DBS and reference checks. Apply in minutes and keep control of your hours, clients and earnings.
