Description
Live-in care in Netherton means living with a client in their home and supporting daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks. Many carers choose live-in placements because they offer continuity of care, deeper relationships and the chance to work flexibly across households in and around Netherton and the wider West Midlands. Carers travel from across the country for live-in placements and PrimeCarers makes that straightforward.
Right now, 122 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
This page advertises ongoing self-employed opportunities rather than one specific role. As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rate and choose the clients, hours and service area that suit you. Typical pay sits around £145–£160 per day, and you’ll see both hourly and full-day live-in bookings depending on the family’s needs (figures shown as £18.50–£20 per hour and £145–£160 per day where applicable).
What the role involves:
- Supporting personal care, medication prompts, meal preparation and mobility support as agreed with the family.
- Helping maintain daily routines, companionship and household tasks relevant to the client’s needs.
- Working on a live-in basis: you sleep at the client’s home and take agreed breaks, with time off arranged between you and the family.
Who this suits
- Experienced carers who want more control than agency work — you choose who you work for and how much you charge.
- People with at least one year of professional care experience who can provide verifiable references.
- Carers comfortable with a live-in rhythm and able to travel for placements (many people come from across the UK to work in Netherton and nearby areas like Cradley Heath, Dudley, Brierley Hill, Rowley Regis, Lye and Tipton).
How PrimeCarers supports you
- We find clients, handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and insurance is included while you work with a client introduced by us.
- We can help arrange an Enhanced DBS check if you don’t already have one.
- Profiles take minutes to create and typically go live within days of verification, so you can start choosing suitable live-in placements quickly.
Requirements to join are straightforward: at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. If you’re based in Netherton or elsewhere in the West Midlands and want more autonomy over your work, PrimeCarers helps you move from agency-style shifts into self-employed live-in care while still providing practical admin and insurance support.
If you’re ready to take control of your care work and try live-in roles in Netherton, creating your profile takes minutes — and you’ll be choosing clients soon after verification.
