Description

Looking for long-term live-in care work in Bowes Park and the wider Haringey area? PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families who need dependable, round‑the‑clock support. Live‑in roles mean you live in the client’s home, support daily routines and personal care, and have agreed breaks during each day. Right now, 114 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

Live‑in placements can suit carers who want deeper relationships with clients, fewer travel days and the chance to focus on consistent, personalised support. Carers travel from across the country for live‑in placements and typically stay for weeks or months depending on the family's needs. You set your own terms: choose your clients, hours and service area, and set your own rates as a self‑employed carer. Typical earning guidance is £145–£160 per day.

PrimeCarers handles the admin so you can get on with care: we introduce families, arrange contracts, manage invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work. Many carers who are used to agency work find this model lets them keep clinical standards and continuity of care while taking control of their time and pay.

Who we’re looking for in Bowes Park

  • Experience: at least 1 year of professional care experience.
  • Checks: an Enhanced DBS check is required; PrimeCarers can help arrange this.
  • Right to work: you must have the right to work in the UK.
  • References: verifiable references from recent care work.

Live‑in work is hands‑on and often intimate: you’ll support personal care, medication prompts, meal preparation, mobility assistance and companionship, plus household routines that help the client stay comfortable and safe at home. Each placement has agreed rest breaks and duties are set out clearly in the contract so expectations are fair and transparent.

Apply in minutes: create a profile, add your experience and references, and PrimeCarers will verify your details. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, and then you can start reviewing client introductions in Bowes Park and nearby areas such as Bounds Green, Wood Green, New Southgate, Arnos Grove, Palmers Green and Turnpike Lane. If you want to move away from shift‑based agency work and take more control, live‑in care through PrimeCarers can be a practical, rewarding next step.
