Description

Live-in care in Bridge of Earn puts you at the heart of someone’s home life — supporting daily routines, personal care and companionship while living with a client and taking agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements and PrimeCarers helps you connect directly with families in Bridge of Earn and the surrounding area. Right now, 12 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This work suits experienced, practical carers who want to move away from agency rotas and take control of the hours they do, the clients they accept, and the rates they charge. On PrimeCarers you are self-employed: you set your own rates and choose your clients, hours and service area. Typical live-in pay is £140–£160 per day. You’ll spend your days helping with routines, household support, medication prompts and meaningful companionship, and your nights on agreed call/awake arrangements or regular sleep patterns as discussed with each family.

Many carers who join us value being part of a community across Perthshire and Kinross while still keeping independence. Placements often sit near towns such as Perth, Scone, Auchtermuchty, Kinross, Falkland and Auchterarder, making travel straightforward whether you’re local or coming from further away. Carers commonly arrange travel and respite breaks around the placement so you can balance personal time with the commitment of live-in work.

PrimeCarers handles the practical side so you can focus on care. We find matches, manage contracts, handle invoicing and payments, and include insurance while you’re working. To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You keep control of when you accept a placement and how you price your services.

Applying takes minutes and creating a profile is straightforward. Once you’ve submitted your details and references, profiles typically go live within days of verification. If you’re ready to move away from agency schedules and build a live-in role that fits your life in or around Bridge of Earn, PrimeCarers makes the transition simple and supported.

How to apply: Complete your profile, upload references and DBS (or request help), and tell families about the care you provide. Most carers are contacted by interested families within days and can discuss shifts, breaks and travel before accepting any placement in Bridge of Earn.
