Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Morpeth

Live-in care assistant roles in Morpeth mean living with a client in their home and supporting daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements; you’ll be helping with personal care, meals, medication prompts, companionship and household tasks as agreed with the family. Right now, 26 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This is an ongoing self-employed opportunity across Morpeth and the surrounding area of Northumberland. It suits experienced carers who want more control than agency life: set your own working pattern, accept longer stays, or move between shorter live-in placements. You remain self-employed, choose your own clients, hours and service area, and decide whether to accept live-in work that requires overnight presence.

Pay and flexibility are in your hands. Many carers on PrimeCarers set rates in the local market and negotiate directly with families; typical ranges appear on profiles to help matches. You’ll see £145–£160 per day displayed where relevant. For clarity, live-in day and hourly ranges are available on profiles to compare options, including £18.50–£20 per hour and £145–£160 per day.

PrimeCarers finds families for you and handles the paperwork: we support contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work on a placement. That administrative cover means you can focus on care, knowing the transactional side is managed for you.

Who we’re looking for:

• Experience: at least 1 year of professional care experience.
• Checks: an Enhanced DBS check is required; PrimeCarers can help arrange one if needed.
• Eligibility: the right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
• Attitude: respectful, reliable and comfortable working in someone’s home for extended periods.

We cover Morpeth itself and nearby towns such as West Bedlington, Bedlington, Ashington, Newbiggin by the Sea, Cramlington and Blyth. Whether you’re already local to Northumberland or travelling in for a live-in placement, you’ll be joining a community of self-employed carers who value autonomy and meaningful one-to-one work.

Applying takes minutes; profiles typically go live within days of verification. This listing is for ongoing self-employed opportunities through PrimeCarers, not one specific role. If you meet the requirements and want to choose your clients and working pattern, creating a profile is the next step.
