Live-in Carer Jobs in Exmouth

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families in Exmouth looking for trusted live-in support. Live-in care means you’ll be based in a client’s home, supporting daily routines and wellbeing around the clock with agreed breaks. We help find matches, manage contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work.
Right now, 63 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

Live-in placements suit carers who value continuity of care and prefer to be part of someone’s daily life. You’ll support personal care, medication prompts, mobility assistance, meal preparation, companionship and the small practical tasks that keep a household running. Travel to placements often comes from across the country; many carers move into Exmouth and nearby areas for stays that range from a few days to longer-term arrangements.

Pay is set by you — carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and choose their own rates. Typical ranges are shown on profiles: £145–£160 per day, with more detail for hourly and live-in day rates shown as £18.89–£24.40 per hour and £145–£160 per day. You choose which clients, which hours and what service area you work in, whether staying local in Exmouth or covering Dawlish, Budleigh Salterton, Topsham, Teignmouth, Chudleigh and Exeter.

PrimeCarers handles the admin so you can focus on care. We prepare contracts, manage invoicing and payments, and include insurance while you work. Applying takes minutes; profiles normally go live within days of verification.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this if you need), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We welcome carers leaving agency work who want more control over their time, rates and the people they support. Live-in roles do require flexibility, strong communication with families, and an ability to manage daily routines sensitively and safely.

How it works in practice: once your profile is verified, families can contact you directly or we’ll send introductions for live-in placements that suit your preferences. You negotiate terms with the family, agree breaks and routines, and PrimeCarers supports the contract and payment process. Profiles are visible to families looking across Exmouth and the surrounding part of Devon.

If you’re an experienced carer ready for more independence and consistent relationships with clients, joining PrimeCarers is straightforward. Create your profile now — it takes minutes, and many carers are matched and arranging their first placement within days.
