Average carer rate: £18.00/hr
The Care Cost Estimator is provided as a guidance tool to help families understand potential care costs based on typical usage and current platform averages. It is not a fixed quote or contractual offer.
Carers on Heems are independent professionals who set their own hourly, daily, or weekly rates. Actual costs may vary depending on the carer selected, level of support required, location, scheduling needs, and any additional agreed services.
Real Care Costs Explained
Let us be completely honest. Families often ask about the private carer hourly rate UK today, hoping for truth.
What You Really Pay
Many agencies hide their fees in odd terms. We simply refuse. You just pay a clean, simple price, while carers proudly pick their own wages. How things work:
- Carer pay: They set a fair wage.
- Our cut: Just 10% gets added.
- Total bill: You see it all upfront.
This plan means better choices. A typical carer charges about £18 an hour, so a normal visit costs about £19.80 an hour with our fee.
Why It Matters
Trust always needs real honesty. Old groups grab huge chunks, leaving folks completely mad. Our setup respects them all. You save cash. Carers keep far more pay today.
Why Heems makes sense
Transparent pricing. Complete control. No hidden costs. Compare our introductory model to traditional fully-managed care agencies.
Fairer for Carers
Founding carers pay 0% platform commission for their first 6 months, so they keep every penny they earn.
No Subscriptions
We don't charge you securely to message carers. You only pay when care is successfully delivered.
