Description
Live-in care in Keston means living with a client in their home and supporting daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks. If you have experience and want more control over your work, PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers directly with families in Keston and the surrounding area. Right now, 93 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
Live-in placements often include personal care, medication prompts, meal preparation, companionship, household support and help with routines. Carers travel from across the country for live-in placements and typically stay with a single client for the agreed period, providing consistent, person-centred support. Many carers find this role suits people who prefer deeper relationships and continuity of care rather than shifting rotas.
On PrimeCarers you are self-employed and you set your own rates. You choose your own clients, hours and service area, and many carers set rates within £145–£160 per day depending on experience and responsibilities. For standard hourly care you can expect rates in the range £18.80–£20 per hour and for live-in day rates see £145–£160 per day. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you work.
This work suits experienced carers who want more flexibility and autonomy than agency work typically offers. You should have at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. An Enhanced DBS check is required; PrimeCarers can help arrange one if you need it.
PrimeCarers handles the admin so you can focus on care. We help with contracts, clear invoicing and secure payments, and provide insurance while you are working on placements sourced through the platform. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
