“She is so caring, compassionate and empathic towards my mum. It has made a huge difference both for my mum and for the wider family.”
Checked means we check identity and right to work and require an enhanced DBS certificate before a carer can use the platform, and carers record an online interview about their experience and approach to care. We do not check qualifications, training or references. 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.

“I'm so happy that we have Esther on our little team and I'd recommend her to anyone looking for someone to help looking after a loved one.”
Esther is brilliant. She is absolutely lovely and clearly has a wealth of experience as a care giver. She has been great for my mum (who has dementia) and has been able to offer a huge amount of support in terms of navigating health services. I'm so happy that we have Esther on our little team and I'd recommend her…

“Flavia was also quite creative in seeing if Mum wanted to listen to music or see soothing images to music on TV or be read aloud to or to talk about the pictures in the room.”

“When Leander was visiting I knew that mum would be happy, content and in good hands.”
I was looking for a companion for my mother when I met Leander Bond. I was looking for someone who would be not only a companion but also our eyes in times when we could not be with mum.

The Checks
How Do We Check
Private Carers?
ID and right to work
We check identity online with Yoti, a digital identity service, and right to work in the UK with a Home Office share code or passport.
Enhanced DBS Certificate
We ask carers on the platform to hold an accepted criminal-record check (Enhanced DBS issued within the last 2 years, DBS Update Service, Scottish PVG or Access NI), with renewal or rechecks depending on the accepted route.
Online Interview
Every carer records an online interview, in their own time, so we can 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.
