Allen was so lovely, patient with my autistic son... I would recommend especially waking nights and sleep ins as it really was so helpful for our family.

She does above and beyond what is asked for her. She communicates really well and provides wonderful care for my 94 yr old mother.

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.

She has been wonderful in looking after my mum (92) who could be difficult when it came to the idea of a wash and change.

Fatoumata has been coming to see my mum for almost a year to give her a good clean, wash her hair and change all her clothes. She has never failed to arrive as agreed, and got in touch with me to check and remind me whenever I forgot to make a new booking on the system. She has been wonderful in looking after my…

It was clear that my husband felt safe and comfortable in her care and enjoyed being with her.

My husband had Parkinsons and Dementia and Esther assisted him from 2017 until his death in December 2021. She provided care and companionship for him while I was out at work during the day, and on some evenings and weekends when needed. She also helped to do some housework each week, which was of great assistance…

It made our difficult lives so much easier and in fact it gave a quality to my mum's life inspite of how advanced her condition was towards the end.

I am so pleased that Sandra is going back to work in care, because it seems some needy person/family are going to be the recipients of Sandra's outstanding care. As a family we were practically on our knees with our mum's very challenging Alzheimer's when Sandra came along. Not only did she make sure my mum was…

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.
