What we offer
A platform built around you.
You set the hours
Choose the days, locations, and care types that fit your life. No shift-swapping drama.
Weekly payouts, no fees
Money in your account every Wednesday. We absorb the payment fees — you keep 100% of your rate.
Warm clients only
We screen every family. No last-minute cancellations, misaligned expectations, or awkward phone calls.
Insurance & support
Public liability cover on every booking, and a real human team you can call — 7 days a week.
Why carers stay
A platform that respects the work.
Most care platforms optimise for volume. We optimise for fit — because great care only happens when the relationship works.
- Set your own rate
- Choose the families you click with
- Message before accepting any booking
- Stop chasing payments
- Build a profile that tells your real story
- Join a community that values the work
“I have worked on three platforms over twelve years. CarerNest is the only one that treats me like a professional, not a number. I pick my hours, the families arrive prepared, and the support team rings me back the same day.”
