We’re not your average care agency

We are an introductory agency, which means that rather than employing carers, we work with carers who are self-employed. This means you have complete flexibility about the hours you work, the clients you take on, and the rates you charge.

Flexible working

You decide who you care for and when.

As a TrustonTap carer you get all the benefits of being your own boss. You are in control of your own hours, so you can work as much or as little as you like, accepting bookings that can work around your other commitments.

Better pay

Earn between £16 and £11 per hour.

As a TrustonTap carer you can set your own rates, and earn on average over £13.50 an hour, up to 50% more than with a traditional care agency. Very experienced carers can earn up to £20 an hour.

No more 15-minute visits

1 hour minimum bookings for better relationships.

We understand that short visits don't work for either you or the person you care for, which is why we have a 1 hour minimum per booking.

Fully-supported

Your own sales, marketing, and support team.

We find clients for you through local advertising campaigns and our website, taking care of all invoicing, collecting payments, and providing ongoing support.

Weekly payments

Get paid every week.

We ensure you are paid every week, on time, and including payments for any clients receiving direct payments from their local authority. All you have to do is submit your timesheets via our easy-to-use carer portal, on your phone or computer.

Join a community

Become part of a community of carers.

Meet other carers in your local area, at our training sessions, or in our online community forum.

You can make all the difference.

As a carer, your strength and gentle guidance help those you care for through the daily tasks they used to find so easy. Without you, life would be impossible.

At TrustonTap we know you are doing one of the most difficult and important jobs of all. We understand the stress many of you have been under working for domiciliary care agencies. Most importantly, we understand that the reason you started working in care is because you care. With Trustontap you will be supported and rewarded to do just that.

Why becoming a carer with TrustonTap is different.

TrustonTap was started five years ago to create a better option for care at home.

We have three missions:

To improve pay and working conditions for carers
To bring down the cost of care for families
To help people stay in their own homes as they get older

We do this by using cutting edge digital technology and working with the best local carers who offer excellent standards of care, in return for better pay and working conditions.

Reasons to be a self-employed carer.

Becoming self-employed can bring many benefits, including:

Deciding what hours you work
Setting your own hourly rate
Choosing who you care for

If you need more information to help you decide whether or not to go self-employed, take a look at our guide to being self-employed to what it all means, or give us a call on FREEPHONE 0808 278 1112. Alternatively, request a callback and one of our team will contact you.

At TrustonTap, we take care of the pressures of finding your own clients, invoicing, collecting payments, and keeping up with regulations, so that you can concentrate on providing excellent care.
