She looked after my mum, who can be incredibly challenging, so well and so gently, and we always felt confident that my mum was getting the best care available.

She was on-time, immediately helping us to travel to an overnight hotel. She stayed overnight and kept a gentle watch on me until the next day.

Vetted means we check identity and right to work and require an enhanced DBS certificate before a carer can use the platform, and we interview carers about their experience and approach to care. You choose your carer, and remain responsible for checking their skills, training and documents suit your needs. See what we check, and what you check.

Apr 2025

Through difficult days and nights, trips to the hospital and back, Dace was amazing. We can't recommend her highly enough.

Dace looked after our mum, who is in her nineties and has dementia, for 15 months and was incredible with her dedication, kindness, company and all round support. From keeping Mum active, exercised and engaged, to making sure she had a healthy (and delicious – Dace is an excellent cook) diet, to providing special…

Grace has a very mature and positive approach to care and caring for vulnerable people and brought a ray of sunshine to what was a dark period in our life.

Grace is a lovely younger carer who arrived to help me care for my husband whilst my regular carer was on holiday. My husband was at end-of-life Alzheimer’s disease and although Grace’s time with us was cut short due to my husband’s rapid decline she still managed to help with care for my husband, while supporting me…

The Checks

How Do We Check
Private Carers?

Full ID Check

A Full ID check including right to work in the UK. We use a government approved service called Yoti to verify carer ID applications online.

Enhanced DBS Certificate

We ask carers on the platform to hold an enhanced DBS certificate on the update service, and we re-check those certificates against the update service for any new items.

Professional Interview

We interview every carer online to understand their experience, communication style and approach to care. This is not a clinical assessment or a guarantee of suitability. Check a carer’s skills, experience and training with them before booking.

PrimeCarers is an introductory platform and does not provide, manage, supervise or clinically assess care.

Clients remain responsible for checking carer documentation, interviewing carers, checking suitability for their specific needs, and agreeing the scope of care directly with the carer.
