Live-in Carer Jobs in Bude

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families in Bude and the surrounding area who need live-in support. You’ll live with a client in their home, supporting daily routines and providing companionship and personal care around the clock with agreed breaks. Right now, 26 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

Live-in care suits carers who want continuity with one person or family, predictable rotas between agreed breaks and the chance to build a real relationship. Many carers travel from across the country to take live-in placements in Bude and wider Cornwall because of the calmer pace and rewarding long-term work. You set your own boundaries — choosing which clients and areas you’ll accept — and you can plan longer stays that fit your life.

Pay is set by you. PrimeCarers profiles typically show the local ranges so families know what to expect before they contact you. Typical figures are shown as £145–£165.50 per day for comparison, with more detail available like £19–£22 per hour for hourly care and £145–£165.50 per day for day rates on live-in placements.

PrimeCarers handles the administrative side so you can focus on care: we find clients, manage contracts, raise invoices and process payments. Insurance is included while you’re working on a placement through PrimeCarers, and we can help arrange an Enhanced DBS if you need one.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We’re looking for reliable, compassionate carers who can work independently in a family home and communicate clearly with relatives and the platform. Many former agency carers choose PrimeCarers because they want to be in charge of their hours and rates while keeping the security of contracts and payment support.

Applying takes minutes and you’ll often see your profile go live within days of verification. When families in and around Bude contact you, you can review them and choose who you want to meet. Nearby towns include Stratton, Holsworthy, Hartland, Launceston, Camelford and Highampton.
