Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Gratton

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with ongoing live-in care placements in Gratton and across Derbyshire. Live-in care means you live with a client in their home, supporting daily routines and being on hand around the clock with agreed breaks. Many carers travel from other towns to take live-in roles and bring stability and companionship to people who want to stay at home. You set your own rates and pick the clients, hours and service area that suit you. PrimeCarers handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you work.

Right now, 85 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

Live-in roles in Gratton typically involve personal care, medication prompts, meal support, companionship, light household tasks and help maintaining routines. You’ll work closely with a family and with any professional care team involved; strong communication and reliable record-keeping matter. Placements vary in intensity and duration — some are long-term ongoing arrangements, others change after reassessment — but all are offered on a self-employed basis.

This work suits experienced carers who want more control than agency shifts allow. If you’re used to agency or bank work and want predictable live-in placements, you’ll appreciate choosing the clients you accept and arranging your own breaks. Many carers from nearby towns such as Alport Town, Darley Dale, Bakewell, Matlock, Wirksworth and Ashbourne travel to Gratton for placements, bringing valuable skills and confidence to local households.

Pay is set by you on PrimeCarers and typically falls within £145–£160 per day depending on the client’s needs, your experience and the placement details. Typical hourly and live-in day ranges are shown on the platform to help you set competitive rates: £18.80–£21 per hour and £145–£160 per day.

To join you need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), and verifiable references. We verify documents and references so profiles go live quickly; applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

PrimeCarers advertises ongoing self-employed opportunities rather than a single post. If you’re ready to take more control of your work, live-in care roles in Gratton offer continuity, variety and the chance to build close working relationships with families while staying based in Derbyshire.

Apply online, complete the simple checks, and start reviewing suitable client matches. Many carers find a good match within a few days and begin arrangements to travel for placements.
