Description
If you’re an experienced carer based in or willing to travel to Bow, PrimeCarers connects you directly with families looking for live-in support. Live-in work means you’ll be based in someone’s home, helping with daily routines and companionship around the clock while taking agreed breaks. Right now, 105 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
Live-in roles suit carers who want continuity of care and the chance to build relationships with clients — many carers travel from across the country for placements in London and beyond. You’ll support personal care, meals, medication prompts and day-to-day tasks, plus companionship and household oversight when agreed. Carers set their own rhythms and discuss patterns of rest and active support with each family.
Pay and flexibility are central to PrimeCarers. Carers on the platform are self-employed, choose their own clients, hours and service area and set their own rates. Typical assignments fall in the region of £145–£160 per day depending on needs and agreement. For other ways of working we often see daytime care at £18.80–£20 per hour and live-in days at £145–£160 per day.
PrimeCarers handles the paperwork so you can focus on care. We introduce you to clients, prepare contracts, manage invoicing and payments and include insurance while you are working on a placement. That means you keep the professional independence of being self-employed without carrying all the admin alone.
To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We won’t post you to families until checks and references are complete; applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
We’re recruiting across Bow and nearby areas including Victoria Park, Old Ford, Mile End, South Hackney, Bethnal Green and Bromley-by-Bow. Many carers who move from agency shifts to self-employed live-in roles find more control over when and where they work, and a closer working relationship with the families they support in Tower Hamlets and surrounding neighbourhoods.
If you’re ready for steadier relationships, more control and straightforward admin support, create a profile today — it only takes minutes and could open up live-in opportunities around Bow and Tower Hamlets within days.
