Live-in Carer Jobs in Bromley

Live-in care means living with a client in their home and supporting daily routines around the clock with agreed breaks. On PrimeCarers you’ll work as a self-employed carer, choosing the clients, hours and service area that suit you. You’ll travel for live-in placements, often coming to Bromley from elsewhere in the UK to support people who want to stay at home.

Right now, 109 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

What the role involves: you’ll provide personal care, meal preparation, companionship and support with day‑to‑day routines. Live-in work is practical and relational — you’ll help maintain independence while being on hand overnight and during the day. Many carers travel into Bromley to take on live-in placements that last weeks or months; placements can also be nearer to home in surrounding areas such as Widmore Green, Widmore, Bromley Common, Bickley, Chinbrook and Beckenham.

Pay and flexibility: as a self-employed carer you set your own rates and keep control of when and where you work. Typical rates for this kind of role are £145–£160 per day. PrimeCarers supports you with contracts, invoicing and payments, and insurance is included while you work. Typical live-in day and hourly figures appear on each client listing: expect to see ranges like £18.80–£20 per hour for hourly care and £145–£160 per day for live-in day rates, depending on the support required.

Who this suits: experienced carers who want more control than agency life offers. If you want to pick clients, agree hours that work for you, and avoid unnecessary rota churn, this is for you. Live-in placements suit carers who are comfortable sharing a home environment, are adaptable, and who can maintain professional boundaries while providing reliable, person-centred support.

Joining requirements: to create a profile you need at least 1 year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK, and verifiable references. We verify documents quickly so profiles typically go live within days of verification.

How to apply: setting up a profile takes minutes. Once verified, PrimeCarers matches you with families and handles the contracts, invoicing and payments — leaving you free to choose which bookings to accept.
