Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Colne

Live-in care in Colne means you live with a client in their home and support their daily routines around the clock, with agreed rest breaks and time off. Live-in placements suit carers who value deeper relationships, continuity of care and the chance to work in a single household without night shift splits. Carers travel from across the country for live-in placements and many find the pace and closeness of the role rewarding.

Right now, 39 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers with families across Colne and nearby towns such as Nelson, Brierfield, Barnoldswick, Burnley, Downham and Padiham.

For clarity, typical hourly care ranges are shown as £18.80–£20 per hour and typical live-in day ranges as £145–£160 per day.

We handle the admin side so you can focus on care. PrimeCarers finds clients and manages contracts, invoicing and payments. While you’re working on a placement, insurance is included. That means you keep the freedom of self-employment while avoiding much of the paperwork that can come with it.
