Description

Live-in care assistants living with a client in Clayton le Moors provide round-the-clock support with agreed breaks, helping with personal care, medication prompts, meal routines, companionship and household tasks that keep someone safely at home. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements and adapt to each household’s rhythms, from gentle night checks to hands-on daytime support.
Right now, 39 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This work suits experienced carers who want more control than traditional agency roles: you’ll be self-employed, choose your clients, agree the hours and set the service area you’ll cover. You pick your own rates and availability while keeping the continuity of a live-in placement. Typical pay sits around £144–£160 per day, with day rates and hourly options varying by client needs.

PrimeCarers makes the admin easier. We introduce you to families in Clayton le Moors and nearby towns such as Great Harwood, Accrington, Oswaldtwistle, Padiham, Blackburn and Haslingden, handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and include insurance while you work on a placement. That means you can focus on care, not paperwork — while still running your own self-employed service.

Essentials to join are straightforward: 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 will verify your documents and references so your profile can go live quickly. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically appear within days of verification.

Live-in roles in and around Clayton le Moors and Lancashire tend to demand practical flexibility, good communication with families and an ability to manage household routines safely and kindly. You’ll often work with people who need consistent, personalised support rather than shift-based aid — that continuity is rewarding, but it’s not the same as short shifts or split-site visiting care. If you’re used to agency frameworks and want to move to a self-employed way of working while keeping support from a trusted platform, this could suit you.

Ready to take more control of your diary and earnings? Create a profile, tell us about your experience and upload essential documents.

Many carers find the switch straightforward and welcome the clearer working arrangements and stronger relationships with the people they support.
