Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Hemel Hempstead

Live-in care assistants are in demand across Hemel Hempstead and the surrounding Hertfordshire area. These roles involve living with a client in their home and supporting daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements and bring experienced, compassionate support into people’s homes.

Right now, 123 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This listing is for ongoing self-employed opportunities rather than a single placement. On PrimeCarers you remain self-employed: you set your own rates, choose the clients you accept, the hours you work and your service area. Typical pay for this kind of role is £145–£160 per day, and you can decide whether you charge by the hour or use a daily live-in rate.

Live-in work suits experienced carers who are comfortable providing personal care, medication prompts, mobility support, meal preparation and companionship across an around-the-clock rota with agreed breaks. You’ll be supporting routines, keeping people safe at home and building continuity of care — often over longer placements than day-based shifts.

PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles contracts, invoicing and payments so you can focus on care. Insurance is included while you work through the platform, and PrimeCarers can help with practical checks and paperwork. Becoming part of PrimeCarers is ideal if you’re thinking of moving away from agency restrictions but still want practical admin support and a steady flow of enquiries from Hemel Hempstead and towns nearby like Berkhamsted, Ley Hill, Harpenden, Watford, Chorleywood and Woodside.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We don’t list applicants for one-off shifts here — these are ongoing, self-employed opportunities suited to carers who want consistency and control over their work.

Applying takes minutes: create a profile, add your documents and references, and PrimeCarers will verify you. Profiles typically go live within days of verification. If you already work shifts in Hemel Hempstead or are willing to travel for live-in placements, this route gives you more control over your time, income and the people you support.
