Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Ashby de la Zouch

If you want to move away from agency life and take real control of your work, PrimeCarers connects experienced self-employed carers with families in Ashby de la Zouch and the surrounding area. Live-in care means you’ll be based in a client’s home to support daily routines around the clock with agreed breaks — many carers travel from across the country for these placements. Right now, 120 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

Live-in care with PrimeCarers suits experienced, compassionate people who want continuity of care and the chance to build real relationships. You’ll help with personal care, meal routines, medication prompts, companionship and household support as agreed with each family. You remain self-employed: you set your own rates and choose your clients, hours and service area. Typical pay for roles like these sits around £145–£160 per day depending on hours and responsibilities, with separate day-rate ranges for live-in work available as £145–£160 per day and hourly care options at £18.50–£20 per hour.

Working in and around Ashby de la Zouch and across Leicestershire, you’ll meet families who value stability. Many placements need someone who can commit to a live-in arrangement for several weeks or months at a time; others are more flexible. PrimeCarers supports bookings from nearby towns including Ashby Woulds, Swadlincote, Coalville, Melbourne, Shepshed and Willington so you can consider travel and location when you pick clients.

We make the admin easy so you can focus on care. PrimeCarers finds clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and insurance is included while you work. You stay in control of your diary and your rates, and you decide which requests to accept.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We verify these quickly; applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. You’ll also want to be ready for the practicalities of live-in work: bringing appropriate clothing, being comfortable with household routines and agreeing breaks and time off with each family.

If you’re an experienced carer in Ashby de la Zouch looking for more control, better continuity and the chance to build meaningful relationships, creating a PrimeCarers profile is the next step. It’s straightforward to set up, and once verified you can start reviewing live-in opportunities that fit your needs.
