Description

Live-in care in Nantwich means 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, bringing experience, compassion and practical skills into people’s lives. If you want to move away from traditional agency shift rotas and keep hands-on, continuous care at the centre of your work, a live-in arrangement could suit you in Nantwich and the surrounding area.

Right now, 90 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

On PrimeCarers you work as a self-employed carer: you set your own rates and choose your clients, hours and service area. Typical pay sits at £145–£160 per day, with many roles advertised by hour (£18.80–£20 per hour) or as a live-in day rate (£145–£160 per day). You select placements that fit your lifestyle and travel plans rather than fitting into fixed rotas.

PrimeCarers does the admin so you can focus on care. We introduce you to families, handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you’re working. That means less paperwork and clearer arrangements for the time you spend in someone’s home in Nantwich or elsewhere in Cheshire.

Who this suits: experienced carers who want continuity of care, privacy of a single-client placement and the autonomy to set standards and rates. Live-in care often involves supporting morning and evening routines, medication prompts, meal preparation, companionship and night checks or sleep-in arrangements with agreed breaks. Carers who travel for placements tell us they value the deeper relationships they build in a live-in role in Nantwich.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We don’t list one-off shifts here; these are ongoing self-employed opportunities where you choose the length and nature of each placement.

Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, upload your references and DBS, and after verification your profile typically goes live within days. You can then review matches and accept the placements that suit you—whether in central Nantwich or nearby towns such as Crewe, Sandbach, Winsford, Middlewich, Alsager and Whitchurch.

If you’re ready to move away from agency life and take control of your live-in work, PrimeCarers makes the transition straightforward while keeping care and the person at the heart of every placement.
