Description

Live‑in care in North Walsham means living with someone in their home, supporting daily routines around the clock with agreed breaks and recorded rest periods. You’ll help with personal care, medication prompting, meal preparation, companionship and household tasks so a person can stay safe and comfortable in their own home. Carers travel to North Walsham from across the country for live‑in placements and agree breaks and handovers with the family before they start work. Right now, 93 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

These ongoing self‑employed opportunities suit experienced carers who want control over their work. On PrimeCarers you set your own rates and choose clients, hours and the service area you’ll cover — many carers in and around Norfolk choose placements that fit the life they want. Typical pay depends on the role and level of care; many carers list within £145.50–£160.50 per day. For reference, typical hourly care roles use £19–£20 per hour and live‑in day roles list £145.50–£160.50 per day.

PrimeCarers finds the families, arranges contracts, handles invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you’re working. You remain self‑employed: you agree terms directly with the family and you invoice through the platform. You keep control of your diary — choose short stays, long placements or occasional relief work in and around North Walsham and nearby towns such as Aylsham, Stalham, Wroxham, Cromer, Rackheath and Sheringham.

Who this suits: experienced carers with at least one year of professional care experience who want a less restrictive way of working than many agencies. You need the right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one). We ask for evidence of experience and references so families can trust the person they invite into their home.

What to expect day‑to‑day: living with a client means shared routines and a respectful, professional relationship. You will agree hours and breaks in advance, record care tasks and maintain open communication with the family and PrimeCarers. Travel to a placement is your decision — many carers travel nationally for the right live‑in role, while others prefer local North Walsham placements.

Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, upload your documents and references, and once verified your profile usually goes live within days. If you’d like to change how you work but keep the rewards of hands‑on care, PrimeCarers makes it straightforward to manage your own self‑employed live‑in work in North Walsham.
