Description
PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families across Yardley and the surrounding area. These are ongoing hourly home care opportunities: daytime visits supporting people in their own homes with personal care, preparing meals, prompting or giving medication, and running small errands. You’ll work with adults who want familiar faces and consistent support in Yardley and nearby communities. Right now, 23 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Most shifts are short daytime visits that suit carers who want flexibility and more control than traditional agency work. You choose your own clients, hours and service area, and set your own rate within £18.80–£20 per hour. PrimeCarers finds the families, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you are working with a client. Many carers on the platform prefer this mix of autonomy and practical admin support, particularly if they’re ready to leave agency rota restrictions and travel rules.
This type of work suits confident, experienced carers who enjoy practical personal care and companionship — helping with bathing and dressing, meal prep, medication routines, light domestic tasks and local errands. You’ll be visiting people in their homes across Yardley and the neighbouring districts such as Stechford, Little Bromwich, Gilbertstone, Kents Moat, South Yardley and Hay Mills. If you already have strong observation and communication skills, and want to build ongoing client relationships, this could be a good fit.
To join you need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check. PrimeCarers can help arrange an Enhanced DBS if you don’t have one yet. You must be self-employed while working through the platform; that means you set your hours and fees and choose which clients to accept. We don’t list a single job here — we advertise ongoing self-employed opportunities across Yardley and the wider West Midlands.
Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. Once your profile is live you can review client requests and accept the ones that suit you. PrimeCarers manages client introductions, written agreements and secure payments so you can focus on care. If you’re an experienced carer in Yardley looking for daytime hourly work with more control, create a profile and start seeing local requests soon.
