Description
If you’re an experienced carer ready for a different way of working, our live-in roles in Billesley put you at the centre of care. Live-in care means you’ll live with a client in their home, supporting daily routines around the clock with agreed breaks; many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements. Right now, 122 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
This work suits carers who value continuity, one-to-one support and the chance to build real relationships. In Billesley and the wider West Midlands you’ll find clients who need help with personal care, medication prompts, mobility support and companionship. Live-in shifts usually combine overnight waking or sleep-in duties with daytime support and agreed rest periods, and carers and families agree the exact routine together.
As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rates and choose your clients, hours and service area. Many carers on our platform set rates within £147–£162.50 per day but you remain in control of what you charge. You can also consider shorter hourly work or full live-in days depending on what suits you and the family: £18.80–£20 per hour and £147–£162.50 per day.
PrimeCarers finds introductions and looks after the paperwork so you can focus on care. We handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and include insurance for the time you’re working with a client. You’ll get clear agreements with families up front and support from our team if anything needs sorting.
Requirements to join
- At least 1 year of professional care experience.
- An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one).
