Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Hinckley

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families in and around Hinckley who need live-in support. Live-in care means you’ll live in the client’s home, helping with day-to-day routines, personal care and companionship, and being on hand through the night with agreed breaks. Carers travel from across the country for live-in placements and often stay with clients for weeks or months, depending on the agreement.
Right now, 121 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This work suits experienced carers who want more control than traditional agency shifts. You choose your clients, the hours you accept and the area you work in. Many carers moving away from agency work find live-in roles in Hinckley give reliable routines, deeper relationships and clear boundaries around breaks and duties.

Pay and practicalities are flexible. As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rates and can list what you charge — typical ranges are visible on profiles (£145–£160 per day). For day-to-day hourly care you might advertise within £18.50–£20 per hour and for live-in day rates use £145–£160 per day — these are examples shown on the platform for guidance, not a promise of earnings. PrimeCarers handles client introduction, contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you are working with a client.

Typical live-in duties include personal care, medication prompts, meal preparation, light household tasks, supporting mobility and providing company. You will live in the client’s home and agree rest breaks during the week; how breaks are taken is part of the arrangement you agree with each family.

Requirements to join are straightforward: 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 check documents so families can book with confidence.

Opportunities are available across Hinckley and nearby towns such as Earl Shilton, Nuneaton, Camp Hill, Market Bosworth, Bedworth and Atherstone, and across Leicestershire more widely. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you can start seeing suitable live-in opportunities quickly. Profiles remain yours to control — you accept only the clients and dates that suit you.
