Live-in Carer Jobs in Lliw Valey

Live-in care with PrimeCarers means you live with a client in their home and support their daily routine around the clock, with agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for these placements, staying with one family for weeks or months at a time. On PrimeCarers you work as a self-employed carer: you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and service area, and manage the way you work. Right now, 61 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

These ongoing self-employed opportunities in Lliw Valey suit experienced carers who want more control than agency life usually allows. You’ll be helping with personal care, medication prompts, mealtimes, companionship, household tasks linked to care and supporting routines that keep someone safe and comfortable at home. Live-in work demands reliability, patience and good communication — and it rewards steady relationships and continuity of care.

Pay varies by client and package. As a guide, typical live-in day rates appear as £145–£160 per day and hourly care is often in the range £17.50–£19.20 per hour when short visits or waking nights are agreed. Many carers advertise typical day and hourly rates on their profile and update them as they choose. On PrimeCarers you remain self-employed and set your own rates; carers commonly list within £145–£160 per day depending on experience and responsibilities.

PrimeCarers handles the practical side so you can focus on care. We find clients, draw up contracts, handle invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work on a placement. If you’re currently in agency work and want to move to a more autonomous way of working around Swansea and Lliw Valey, this platform is designed to make that change straightforward.

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. You can list the towns you’re willing to travel to — for example Gorseinon, Ammanford, Garnant, Glanamman, Neath and Llanelli — and update your availability whenever you like.

Applying takes minutes: create a profile, add your experience and references, and we’ll verify the details. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, and once you’re visible you can be contacted by families looking for live-in care in Lliw Valey and the surrounding area. If you want a flexible, self-directed way of working with clients at home, setting your rates and choosing the placements that suit you, PrimeCarers makes the move simple and supported.
