Live-in Carer Jobs in Fareham

Live-in care in Fareham means you live with a client in their home and support their daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements and bring the experience and compassion needed to make someone’s home safe and comfortable. Placements are ongoing, flexible and suited to experienced carers who prefer continuity of care in a private-home setting. These are not single shifts or short-term stays — they are longer placements arranged directly with families.

Right now, 94 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This work is right for you if you have at least a year of professional care experience and want to move away from agency rota constraints. On PrimeCarers you work as a self-employed carer: you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and service area. Many carers who join us find they can command better terms and more predictable routines than in agency systems. Typical pay sits within £145–£160 per day depending on the needs of the person and the hours agreed.

PrimeCarers finds clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments for you. Insurance is included while you work on a placement, and we can help with practical checks — for example arranging an Enhanced DBS if you need one. Carers travel to placements from other parts of the UK and bring their skills to communities across Hampshire and beyond.

Requirements to join are straightforward and verifiable:

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