Description

If you’re an experienced carer looking for live-in roles around Crowland, this is an ongoing platform of self-employed opportunities to consider. Live-in care means living with a client in their home and supporting daily routines around the clock with agreed breaks — a chance to build continuity and real relationships with the people you support.

Right now, 104 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements, coming to Crowland and nearby towns like Market Deeping, The Deepings, Spalding, Whittlesey, Bourne and Holbeach. You’ll choose which clients suit you, where you’ll work and the hours you accept. Carers on PrimeCarers set their own rates, with typical pay available in the range £145–£160 per day; if you prefer hourly or day rates you’ll see roles quoted as £18.80–£20.70 per hour for hourly care or £145–£160 per day for live-in days. This setup suits carers who want more control than a traditional agency role offers but also want help with the admin that comes with self-employment.

What the work looks like
Live-in care is about personal, hands-on support — tasks such as personal care, medicines prompting, meal preparation, companionship and helping a client follow their daily routine. Shifts are agreed with the family and include planned rest and break times. You’ll usually be supporting one main client in their home and, where needed, coordinating with family and other visiting professionals.

Who we’re looking for

  • At least 1 year of professional care experience.
  • An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this).
  • The right to work in the UK and verifiable references.

PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles contracts, invoicing and payments — insurance is included while you work on a placement. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you could be visible to families across Crowland and the wider Lincolnshire area quickly.

If you’re ready to leave shift-by-shift uncertainty and take more control of your work — while still having a back-up for contracts and payments — this could be a good next step. You’ll be joining a community of self-employed carers who value stability, respect and clear arrangements with families in Crowland.

How to apply
Create a profile, add your experience and references, and we’ll help with verification. The process only takes minutes and you’ll hear from our team about next steps. Set your rates, choose the clients you want and start exploring live-in roles across Crowland and beyond.
