We are looking for a Weekend Care Professional to join our Home Instead Basildon team.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone looking for regular weekend work who enjoys helping others and wants to make a real difference to people’s lives.
Clear and reliable weekend availability is essential.
As a Weekend Care Professional, you could support clients with:

- Medication support, in line with training and care plans
- Supporting clients with their daily routines
- Helping clients maintain their independence
- Accompanying clients to appointments, shopping or social activities
- Providing reassurance and emotional support
- Letting the office know about any changes or concerns
A cup of tea and a chat, helping someone prepare their breakfast, accompanying them on a walk or simply being there when they need someone, these moments can make a huge difference.
What we're looking for
We're looking for people who are:
- Caring, patient and friendly
- Reliable and trustworthy
- Good listeners and communicators
- Respectful of people's dignity, choices and independence
- Comfortable working with older people

If you have the right personality and a real desire to care for others, we'll provide the training and support you need.
No formal care qualifications or previous care experience are required.
Full training and induction will be provided.
We are looking for attitude, values and personality above everything else.
A full UK driving licence and access to a reliable vehicle is desirable due to the community-based nature of the role.
This is a weekend-focused position. Applicants must have clear and reliable availability to work Saturdays and Sundays.
Our Approach
At Home Instead Basildon, we don't just care for people, we care about people.
If you're someone who naturally looks out for others, enjoys making people smile and wants a role where your personality genuinely matters, we'd love to hear from you.
Bring your caring personality. We'll provide the training.
