Description

If you’re an experienced carer looking for steady live-in work in New Moston, this is a straightforward route to longer placements where you live with the person you support and help with daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements and work with families in New Moston and nearby areas. Right now, 51 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

Live-in care with PrimeCarers suits people who want more control than agency rotas allow. You’ll provide companionship, help with personal care, medication prompts, meals and household support, and assist with daily routines—often for older people or adults with long-term needs. Placements are arranged so you and the family agree the hours and regular rest periods.

As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own terms: choose your clients, your hours and the area you cover. You decide your rate and can reference £148–£161 per day when discussing fees with families. PrimeCarers finds clients, manages contracts, handles invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work — so you spend more time caring and less on paperwork.

Who this suits: experienced, reliable carers who want fewer late changes, clearer pay and direct relationships with families. Many people moving from agency or bank work find the live-in role allows for deeper continuity of care and a better work–life rhythm between placements. Carers travel from across Manchester and beyond for live-in bookings; you may cover New Moston and nearby areas such as Moston, Failsworth, Newton Heath, Harpurhey, Blackley and Miles Platting.

Requirements to join are simple and practical: 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. You’ll need to be comfortable living in someone’s home for the agreed period and managing your own rest breaks in line with the agreement you make with the family.

Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, upload your documents and references, and PrimeCarers will verify them — profiles typically go live within days of verification. Once live you can review enquiries, agree terms directly with families and accept the placements that fit your life. If you want a steadier approach to live-in care in New Moston, join PrimeCarers and keep the control—on your terms.
