Description

Live-in care roles in Hammersmith mean living with a client in their home and supporting daily routines, personal care and companionship around the clock with agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements and stay as long as the arrangement suits both people.

Right now, 106 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This work suits experienced carers who want more control than agency shifts allow. As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rates and choose the clients, hours and service area that fit your life. Typical pay sits around £148–£164 per day; many carers take hourly bookings in the range £19–£21.50 per hour or opt for live-in day rates such as £148–£164 per day when the role requires staying in the home.

PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles the contracts, invoicing and payments so you can focus on care. Insurance is included while you work on placements sourced through the platform. That practical support makes it easier to take on live-in roles across Hammersmith and Fulham and nearby areas like West Kensington, Holland Park, Earls Court, West Brompton, Barnes and Fulham without the usual admin overhead.

To join you need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We verify your documents quickly so profiles typically go live within days of submission. Applying only takes minutes — complete a short profile, upload checks and references, and we’ll take it from there.

Live-in care is intimate, steady and rewarding: you’ll support waking and bed routines, medication prompts, meal preparation, mobility assistance and companionship, and take agreed breaks during your rota. Many carers appreciate the continuity of working with the same family in Hammersmith, whether you’re already local or planning to travel in for a placement.
