Live-in Carer Jobs in Kensal Green

Live-in care in Kensal Green means you’ll be living with a client in their 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, bringing continuity and companionship to people who prefer to stay at home. PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers directly with families in Kensal Green and the surrounding area, helping with contracts, invoicing and payments — and providing insurance while you work.

Right now, 108 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This work suits experienced carers who value autonomy. On PrimeCarers you are self-employed: you set your own rates, choose your clients, your hours and the service area you cover. Live-in roles typically sit within £145–£160 per day for a day and daytime/evening or hourly care is seen at £18.80–£20.10 per hour. Many carers list roles at £145–£160 per day as a guide, but the final rate is yours to agree.

Kensal Green is a close-knit community with varied needs — from short-term live-ins to long-term companionship — and families often prefer skilled, stable carers rather than agency rotations. If you’re used to agency life but want more control over who you work with, where you travel to, and how you structure breaks, live-in work through PrimeCarers could fit well. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, the paperwork and invoices so you can focus on care.

Requirements to join are straightforward: at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK, and verifiable references. We don’t post a single advertised role here — this page promotes ongoing self-employed opportunities across Kensal Green and nearby communities.

Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, upload your documents, and once verified your profile usually goes live within days. Many carers who switch from agency work like the freedom to choose live-in placements and the clarity around contracts and payments that PrimeCarers provides.
