Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Halifax

Live-in care in Halifax means living with a client in their home and supporting daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks and clear boundaries. Many carers travel from across the country for longer placements and build strong relationships with the people they support. Halifax and the wider West Yorkshire area offer a steady demand for experienced, reliable carers. Right now, 44 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This work suits experienced carers who want the control of self-employment without the paperwork. On PrimeCarers you set your own rates, choose clients, hours and the area you’ll work in, and you can expect typical pay of £146–£160 per day depending on the care required and the length of the placement. For more detail you’ll also see typical hourly care ranges of £18.80–£20 per hour and typical live-in day ranges of £146–£160 per day when you create your profile.

PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and insurance is included while you work. That means you can concentrate on giving consistent, person-centred care rather than chasing paperwork. You retain the flexibility to accept or decline placements and to work around other commitments.

Live-in care involves helping with personal care, medication prompts, meal preparation, mobility support and company. It’s hands-on and often emotionally rewarding. You’ll be expected to work with a care plan, respect the client’s home and routines, and agree rest breaks in advance. Many Halifax placements cover nearby areas such as Sowerby Bridge, Queensbury, Elland, Brighouse, Clayton and Thornton, so you may find work close to home or a short drive away.

To join PrimeCarers you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this) and verifiable references. We ask for clear records of your experience so families can choose with confidence.

Applying takes minutes: create a profile, upload documents and references, and the team verifies what you provide. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, after which families can contact you about placements. You remain self-employed, set your own hours and rates, and choose which clients to accept.

If you’re an experienced carer in Halifax looking to move away from agency constraints and take control of the work you do, PrimeCarers makes the switch straightforward. Create your profile today and see the opportunities that match your skills and availability.
