Description
Live-in care in Bexley New Town means living in with a client, becoming part of their home and supporting daily routines around the clock with agreed breaks. If you have the experience to provide companionship, personal care and household support, and you want to escape agency rot to work on your own terms, these roles could suit you in Bexley New Town. Right now, 111 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families looking for long-term, lived-in support in Bexley New Town and nearby areas such as Bexleyheath, Crook Log, Blendon, Bexley Village, Barnehurst and Old Bexley. Carers set their own rates and choose the clients, hours and service area that work for them. Live-in placements commonly pay in the range £145–£160 per day depending on the client’s needs and the agreement you make.
What the role involves: you will live at the client’s home, help with morning and evening routines, support mobility and personal care, prepare meals and offer companionship. Live-in care requires flexibility, reliability and the emotional maturity to become part of someone’s household while maintaining professional boundaries. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements to Bexley New Town, bringing a breadth of experience to local families.
PrimeCarers handles the practicalities so you can focus on care. We introduce you to families, manage contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work. That support makes it easier to operate independently without the admin burden of running every part of a placement yourself.
Who we’re looking for: carers with at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this) and verifiable references. You should be comfortable living in someone else’s home, able to work agreed shift patterns with scheduled breaks, and willing to travel for placements when required.
Applying takes minutes: create a profile, upload ID and references, and allow for verification. Profiles typically go live within days of verification. Choose the clients and live-in opportunities you want, negotiate your rate and agree terms directly. If you’re ready to move away from agency-style restrictions and take control of how, when and where you work, consider joining carers already finding rewarding live-in work in Bexley New Town and across Bexley.
