Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Longbridge

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self‑employed carers with live‑in opportunities around Longbridge. As a live‑in care assistant you’ll live with a client in their home, support daily routines and provide companionship and personal care through agreed waking hours and paid breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for these placements, and you’ll have the freedom to accept only the clients and hours that suit you. Right now, 121 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

Live‑in work suits people who are comfortable becoming part of someone’s daily life and who can manage 24‑hour responsibilities with agreed rest periods. Typical live‑in arrangements can be priced within £146.50–£162.50 per day, while day-to-day hourly care on PrimeCarers generally sits in the £18.80–£20 per hour bracket. Overall, carers on our platform set their own rates — the typical range is £146.50–£162.50 per day — and choose the clients, hours and service area that work for them.

Working through PrimeCarers means we find families for you and take care of contracts, invoicing and payments. Insurance is included while you are on a placement, and we can support you to arrange an Enhanced DBS if you don’t already have one. You remain self‑employed, which gives you flexibility to accept short stays, long placements or cover in neighbouring areas such as Turves Green, Rednal, West Heath, Northfield, Rubery and New Frankley.

To join we ask for at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. An Enhanced DBS is required — PrimeCarers can help arrange this if needed. Applying takes minutes and many profiles go live within days of verification, so you could be seeing local matches in the West Midlands quickly.

If you’re thinking of moving away from agency shifts and want more control over your work, live‑in care through PrimeCarers offers predictable paperwork and real flexibility. You choose which clients to accept, set the terms you’re happy with and retain the freedom of being self‑employed while PrimeCarers handles the administrative side.
