Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Kempston

Live-in care in Kempston means living alongside a client in their own home and supporting daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks and time off. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements and bring the kind of continuity families value. If you want to work independently, keep control of when and where you work, and build close relationships with people you support, live-in care in Kempston could suit you well. Right now, 123 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rates and choose the clients, hours and service area you accept. Typical pay sits in the range £148–£163.50 per day depending on needs and experience; you can also compare £18.89–£21 per hour for hourly work and £148–£163.50 per day for full live-in days when considering different placements. You decide what you charge and which offers you accept.

Day-to-day, live-in work can include personal care, meal support, prompting medication, companionship and keeping routines running smoothly. You’ll be staying in the client’s home, so good boundaries, patience and clear communication are important. Many carers who move from agency roles to self-employed live-in work say they value the deeper continuity of care and the chance to shape a placement to suit both them and the family.

This opportunity suits experienced carers who want flexibility and more control: if you have at least 1 year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references, you’re eligible to apply. You’ll need an Enhanced DBS check; PrimeCarers can help arrange one. PrimeCarers also handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you’re working, so you can concentrate on care.

Applying takes minutes — create a profile, add your experience and references, and our verification team will review you. Profiles typically go live within days of verification. You can accept placements across Kempston, throughout Bedfordshire and in nearby areas such as Bedford, Wixams, Ampthill, Flitwick, Shefford and Sandy. Many carers travel for live-ins, so whether you live locally or further afield, you can find opportunities that fit.

We’re advertising ongoing self-employed opportunities, not a single role. If you’re ready to work more independently, keep full control of your rates and hours, and provide consistent live-in support in Kempston, sign up and start connecting with families.
