Chosen by PrimeCarers from carers’ profiles and client reviews  ·  Updated October 2026

How these carers were chosen

Of the 50 carers near Lambeth with a photo on their profile, 40 have a studio portrait, an hourly rate and a profile full enough to quote. The six below are the strongest of them on three measures.

  1. 1

    What clients said

    Rating and number of reviews come first. Reviews come from clients who booked through PrimeCarers, screened before they appear and never edited; references carers have added from past clients are not verified.

  2. 2

    Their record with us

    How reliably they have worked through PrimeCarers, how long they have been caring, and how many hours of care they have given.

  3. 3

    A profile worth reading

    A clear portrait and enough written about their work to judge them by. The words under each name are the carer’s, and we have only shortened them.

In Ese’s words

“I have been a carer and a support worker for twelve years with different client groups. I have had a lot of training which makes me very confident with my job. I am a highly motivated and genuine individual with a wide range of skills and positive personal attributes. With my experience, I deliver the highest standard of care to my clients.”

She is a genuine, kind and caring person, full of warmth and love. Ese takes her work really seriously and has been very adaptable as my mothers needs progressed and varied. Nothing has been too much for her and she provided feedback to me regularly. I have come to see Ese as part of the family and would highly recommend her to anyone wanting a trustworthy, reliable and instinctive carer.

Overnight care and live-in care
In Julia’s words

“What drew me into care was a simple belief that people deserve to stay in their own homes, surrounded by their own things, even when life gets harder. Ten years on, that still drives how I work across London, offering hourly visits, overnight support and live-in care depending on what someone needs.”

Julia cared for our mum amazingly! Her kind and patient approach ensured mum was supported well in her early stages of being diagnosed with Dementia. She is very trustworthy, and is a true asset to anyone that needs her support.

In Jeli’s words

“My week is built around visits across London sitting with someone over a cup of tea, cooking a meal together, or heading out for a slow walk if the weather allows. With over 9 years of dedicated care experience, including NHS community and domiciliary work, I have found that this kind of gentle company, the conversation and the small shared moments, often matters just as much as any task on a care plan.”

Jeli B is an excellent carer, she is attentive, friendly and helpful. Jeli B makes my mum feel comfortable and relaxed and she is extremely reliable and hardworking. Jeli B is always punctual and attends every scheduled visit. My mum appreciates her kindness and patience and is so grateful to have her. Thank you Jeli B

“I am a caring friendly individual who can communicate with people on all levels. I have 7 years care experience including 1 year’s RGN training, caring for the elderly including my mother, who had dementia and working with abused children in a residential home.”

Nicola is BRILLIANT. Everything is going like clockwork since she started as a carer for me. I am often in a lot of pain and she understands and works accordingly. She is extremely pleasant and extremely clean. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone. Margaret Berry.

Overnight care and live-in care
In Gloria’s words

“What draws me to care work is simple: the chance to make someone's life feel a little lighter, even in small ways. Helping someone feel heard, safe or understood on a difficult day gives real purpose to my work, and that sense of purpose has kept me going for seven years now, supporting people across London through hourly visits, overnight stays and live-in care. One client who stays with me was an elderly man living alone with little family support.”

“Most of it part time while doing my regular job. In 2022 I took the decision to go full time and I had the most amazing couple with whom I work for until their last days. They were a joy to work with. I have since work with a couple more clients doing visiting care.”

Outside work, Sonia lists walking, dancing and cooking & baking.

How to choose

How to choose between home carers in Lambeth

The carers above have the strongest records near Lambeth, but the right one for your family depends on the visits you need, so start from those.

  1. 1

    Write down the visits you need

    Half an hour
    What time of day, how long each visit, and what has to happen in it: getting up and washed, tablets, a meal, a walk to the shops. Add anything that has gone wrong before. This becomes your first message to every carer.
  2. 2

    Shortlist two or three carers near Lambeth

    Free
    For visits, a short journey matters, because the early and late calls are the ones a long drive puts at risk. Look at where each carer is based, then read their reviews for specific things they did.
  3. 3

    Talk to each one

    This week
    A video call or a visit of twenty minutes is enough. Use the questions below, and let your relative meet them if they can, because how the two of them get on matters as much as experience.
  4. 4

    Start with a trial fortnight

    Weeks 1 and 2
    Agree the visit times, the rate and how you will hear from the carer after each visit. The booking, the agreement between you and the carer, and payments are all set up on PrimeCarers.

What they charge

What the best home carers in Lambeth charge

Each carer sets their own rate. The carers profiled above charge £18.50 to £30 an hour with our fee included, a little above the typical £20 for Lambeth.

Hourly rates for visits in LambethOur fee included
  1. The carers on this page6 carers£18.50 to £30
  2. Carers across LambethThe middle half of rates£19 to £21
  3. A home care agencyTypical charge for a visit£28 to £35

From carers' own profiles, October 2026. Agency figures are the range we quote across the site.

A visit is charged by the hour, and most families start with one or two visits a day. The cost of home care in Lambeth works through what a week comes to, and funding care covers the help available from the council and the NHS.

What we check

What every carer on this page has passed, and what is yours to check

PrimeCarers is an introductory service. We check their identity, right to work and enhanced DBS, and they record an online interview; whether they are right for your relative is your decision, and the profiles above are there to help you make it.

Enhanced DBS, renewed every 2 years

Checked before a carer appears: an enhanced DBS (or PVG in Scotland, Access NI in Northern Ireland) issued within the last 2 years, and it has to be renewed every 2 years while they work through PrimeCarers.

Identity and right to work

Photo identity verified, and the right to work in the UK checked, before the profile goes live.

An online interview

A recorded online interview, answered in the carer’s own time, about their experience and how they approach care. It is not a test of skills or a guarantee of suitability.

What we do not verify

Training certificates, qualifications and references. Carers can list these on their profile; ask about them when you talk, and ask to see anything that matters to your relative’s care.

How we check carers sets out each check in detail.

Questions

Questions families in Lambeth ask about choosing a home carer

By what their clients said first, then by their record. We start from every carer who offers visits and is based within about 45 minutes of Lambeth, and keep those with a studio portrait and a profile that says enough about them to be useful. They are ordered by their client rating and how many reviews they have, then by whether a client wrote a review we can quote, then by their record with PrimeCarers, their years of experience and the care they have given through us. All 6 carers profiled here have client reviews, averaging 5.0 out of 5.

Yes. Before a carer appears on PrimeCarers they have passed an enhanced DBS check, an identity check and a right-to-work check, and recorded an online interview. That DBS must have been issued within the last 2 years, and it has to be renewed every 2 years. Their skills, qualifications and training are for you to check with them. How we check carers sets out each step.

Yes, and it is worth doing. Message the carers you like through PrimeCarers with the visits you need and anything that has been difficult, then arrange a video call or a visit. Talking to a carer is free and nothing is booked until you say so. Most families speak to two or three carers before choosing.

The carers profiled on this page charge £18.50 to £30 an hour, with our fee included. Across Lambeth carers charge £19 to £21 an hour, typically £20. Agencies usually charge £28 to £35 an hour for a visit. The cost of home care in Lambeth works through what a week of visits comes to.

11 of the 12 carers on this page list dementia on their profile. A tick on a profile is the carer's own description, so ask each one about the people with dementia they have cared for and what they found hardest. Dementia care at home covers what good support looks like at each stage.

Yes. Between them the carers on this page speak Arabic, Bengali, Chinese (Mandarin), Hindi, Norwegian, Norwegian Bokmål, Norwegian Nynorsk, Spanish and Yoruba as well as English, and the search can filter by language. For someone whose first language has come back to them with age or dementia, a carer who shares it can make visits much easier.

Then you choose another, and the same search shows who else is available. For visits, notice under the contract is 48 hours, and PrimeCarers makes no charge to stop or change carer. It helps to agree at the start that the first couple of weeks are a trial for both of you. Our team can help you find someone else in the meantime.

Some can, and their profile says so. Of the carers profiled here, 3 also offer overnight care and 3 offer live-in care. Live-in carers travel much further for a placement than visiting carers do, so the best live-in carers in Lambeth is a separate page, drawn from a wider area.
