Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Primrose Hill

Live-in care in Primrose Hill means supporting a person in their own home, often for several days at a stretch, helping with routines, meals, personal care and companionship while taking agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements and enjoy the continuity and deeper relationships that come with living alongside a client. Right now, 112 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

These ongoing, self-employed opportunities suit experienced carers who want more control than agency shifts allow. In Primrose Hill you'll find household types across the neighbourhood — from quiet flats to family homes — and nearby communities like Chalk Farm, Camden Town, Kentish Town, Belsize Park, Swiss Cottage and St Johns Wood often look for live-in support too. You set your own rates and choose the clients, hours and service area that work for you. Typical pay varies by role and arrangement: £145–£160 per day. For reference, the typical hourly-care range is £18.80–£20 per hour and live-in day rates typically fall in £145–£160 per day.

PrimeCarers finds carers clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while they work. That means less paperwork and more time with people who need your skills. You’ll still be self-employed: you decide which placements to accept, how you organise agreed breaks, and whether you travel to Primrose Hill or cover nearby parts of Camden.

This kind of work is for carers who have at least a year of professional care experience, reliable references and the right to work in the UK. We also require an Enhanced DBS check; PrimeCarers can help arrange one if you need it. Typical joining requirements:

• Minimum 1 year of professional care experience
• Enhanced DBS check (we can assist with this)
• Right to work in the UK and verifiable references

Primrose Hill placements often mean longer stays and closer relationships than day shifts. If you’re leaving agency work for more autonomy, live-in roles give predictable routines and the chance to build rapport. You may travel to Primrose Hill from elsewhere, and many carers do so because the match and daily rhythms suit them better than short shifts.

Applying takes minutes: create a profile, upload references and a DBS, and our team will verify your details. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, and then you can start choosing clients in Primrose Hill and neighbouring areas. If you want less admin and more meaningful, continuous care, PrimeCarers is set up to support you every step of the way.
