Description

Live-in care work in Nailsea gives you the chance to support someone in their own home, becoming a reliable presence for daily routines and overnight support. As a live-in Care Assistant you’ll live with the client, assist with personal care, meals, mobility, medication prompts and companionship, while taking agreed breaks through the day and night. Many carers travel from across the country for these placements and bring their experience to households across Nailsea and the surrounding areas.

Right now, 110 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

These roles suit experienced carers who want more control than agency shifts usually allow. On PrimeCarers you are self-employed: you set your own rates, choose which clients to work with and decide your hours and service area. Typical pay varies; many carers see rates around £146–£162.50 per day. For clarity, typical hourly care ranges are £19–£24.50 per hour and typical live-in day ranges are £146–£162.50 per day. PrimeCarers finds you clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work.

Live-in placements mean being part of someone’s day-to-day life. You will support daily routines, help with household tasks as agreed, provide personal care and emotional support, and be available through the night with agreed rest periods. Placements can be local to Nailsea or involve travel from or to nearby areas — for example Portishead and North Weston, Portishead, Clevedon, Filton, Patchway and Axbridge — depending on what you choose.

To join you need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We do check these things before your profile goes live to protect clients and carers alike.

Applying takes minutes: create a profile, upload your documents and references, and complete verification. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you can start seeing suitable matches quickly. You remain self-employed throughout: you choose clients and set your own terms, while PrimeCarers supports the admin and payment side.
