Description

Live-in caring in Bracknell means living with someone in their home and supporting their day-to-day routines, nights and personal wellbeing with agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements, staying with a client for weeks or months depending on what suits both of you. Live-in work is demanding but rewarding — it suits people who want continuity of care, deeper relationships and a predictable base in Bracknell.

Right now, 104 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own terms: you choose your clients, hours and service area and set the rates that reflect your skills and experience. Typical pay falls in the range £145–£160 per day with common hourly and live-in ranges of £19–£22 per hour and £145–£160 per day respectively. That means you can balance higher-paying short placements with longer stays where continuity matters.

PrimeCarers finds families who need live-in support and takes care of contracts, invoicing and payments for work arranged through the platform. Insurance is included while you work on a placement, so you can focus on care rather than paperwork. Many carers who left agency rotas appreciate the direct, flexible relationships they build with families across Berkshire and beyond.

Who this suits: experienced carers who want to work independently, control their diary and build longer-term relationships with clients. You’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help organise one if needed), the right to work in the UK and two verifiable references. PrimeCarers is for self-employed professionals who prefer choice over fixed rotas.

Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, add your documents and availability and our team will verify you — profiles typically go live within days of verification. Once live, you can respond to enquiries from families in Bracknell and nearby towns such as Ascot, Wokingham, Crowthorne, Sandhurst, Camberley and Yateley. You remain in control: accept only the placements that fit your life and values.

If you’re ready to move away from agency restrictions and manage your own care work around the clock with agreed breaks, PrimeCarers makes live-in placements in and around Bracknell straightforward. Join other self-employed carers who value autonomy, clear contracts and the ability to set their own rates.
