Description

This page advertises ongoing self-employed opportunities rather than one specific placement. Live-in roles suit experienced carers who want stability and closer one-to-one work without agency rules. You’ll provide companionship, personal care, medication prompts, meal support, small household help and the daily presence that keeps a person safe and comfortable. Breaks are agreed in advance and you remain self-employed, working with the client and family to set a pattern that fits both of you.
