Description
Live-in care roles in Chipping Campden suit experienced carers who want hands-on, personal work supporting someone in their own home. As a live-in care assistant you’ll live with a client, help with daily routines, personal care, medication prompts and companionship, and provide support around the clock with agreed breaks so you can rest and recharge between duties. Many carers travel from across the country for placements here in Chipping Campden and the surrounding Gloucestershire countryside, enjoying the close-knit communities and the variety of needs they can support.
Right now, 115 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
These opportunities are ongoing and self-employed: you choose your clients, hours and the service area you’ll cover. PrimeCarers finds clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and insurance is included while you work. You set your own rates and availability — most live-in carers on the platform work within a typical range of £145–£160 per day depending on the support required and living arrangements. Live-in roles often attract carers who prefer deeper continuity of care and the chance to build real relationships.
The day-to-day can include personal care, meal preparation, light household tasks, medication support, mobility assistance, and company. Live-in care means you’re based in the client’s home, so clear boundaries and agreed rest breaks are part of every plan. Carers travel here from across the UK for placements in Chipping Campden and nearby towns such as Moreton in Marsh, Shipston on Stour, Evesham, Stow on the Wold, Greet and Winchcombe, where rural life and accessible local facilities shape how care is delivered.
To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), and verifiable references. We verify documents quickly: applying takes minutes, and profiles typically go live within days of verification. PrimeCarers supports self-employed carers with contracts, secure payments and workplace insurance while you are matched to clients.
