Description
PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families in Merseybank who need live-in support. Live-in care means you live with a client in their home and support daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks and time off. Many carers travel from across the country for these placements and stay for as long as both parties agree. Right now, 57 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
Live-in roles suit carers who want continuity of care, stronger relationships with clients and predictable days on duty. You’re in control — you set your own rates, choose which clients you’ll work with and decide your service area. Typical pay falls within £146–£161 per day, and you can also see typical daytime and hourly guides like £146–£161 per day and £18.70–£20 per hour when you create your profile.
PrimeCarers handles the admin so you can focus on care. We find clients, prepare contracts, handle invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work. That means less paperwork for you and a clear agreement with each family in Merseybank and surrounding areas such as Didsbury West, Chorlton Park, Northern Moor, Northenden, Chorltonville and Old Moat.
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. We verify profiles quickly: applying takes minutes, and most carers go live within days of verification. Many carers who currently work in Manchester or nearby towns switch to PrimeCarers to regain flexibility and better control over the work they accept.
What live-in care involves day-to-day can vary—some clients need personal care and help with medication routines, others need support with mobility, meal prep, companionship and daily tasks. You and the family agree a rota and breaks before you start, so expectations are clear from day one. Because placements are self-employed contracts, you remain independent while providing consistent, personalised care.
If you’re ready to take more control over the clients you work with and the hours you do, creating a PrimeCarers profile is the next step. It takes minutes to apply and our local team will help get your profile verified and visible to families across Merseybank and nearby areas. Start by setting up your profile, add your experience and references, and you could be matched to live-in roles soon.
