Description
Live-in care in Betws y Coed means living with a client in their home and supporting their daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements, staying with a client for weeks or months at a time while providing continuity of care. Right now, 36 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
This kind of work suits experienced carers who want more control than agency shifts typically allow. On PrimeCarers you work as a self-employed carer: you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and service area, and you can accept live-in roles in Betws y Coed and across Conwy. You’ll be able to build relationships, support someone’s day-to-day life and shape how you work — without the rota constraints of large agencies.
Pay is set by you and reflects your experience and the support needed. Typical ranges are shown on our platform so you have market context — for many live-in roles carers quote £145–£160 per day and you can compare that with £15–£25 per hour for hourly care or £145–£160 per day for day rates. Travel to placements is common and carers travel from elsewhere in the UK for live-in work, so factor that into the hours you accept and any arrangements you agree with a family. Applying takes minutes and, once verified, profiles typically go live within days.
To join you must have at least one year of recent professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. An Enhanced DBS check is required; PrimeCarers can help arrange one if you need it. PrimeCarers also handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you are working on a placement, so you can focus on care rather than paperwork.
