Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Prudhoe

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed live-in carers with families in Prudhoe and across Northumberland. Live-in care means you live with a client in their home and support daily routines around the clock with agreed breaks; many carers travel from across the country for these placements, bringing continuity and companionship to people who want to stay in their own homes. Right now, 25 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This is ongoing, self-employed work — not one single placement listed here — and it suits carers who value autonomy and deeper relationships with people they support. You set your own availability, choose clients and agree the hours and service area that work for you. Typical pay sits around £145–£160 per day, with day and hourly guides shown as £145–£160 per day for live-in days and £18.80–£23.50 per hour for hourly care to help you compare opportunities.

PrimeCarers makes the practical side straightforward: we introduce you to families, handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you’re working. That administrative cover leaves you free to focus on care, whether you live locally to Prudhoe or commute from towns such as Stockfield, Ryton, Blaydon on tyne, Corbridge, Ponteland and Consett. Many carers who move away from agency rotas find the variety and flexibility here a better fit with their lives.

Who this role suits:

• Experienced carers— you’ll have at least one year of professional care experience.
• People ready for self-employed work— you set your own rate and choose clients directly.
• Reliable and compassionate— live-in care needs someone who values routines and dignity.

Joining essentials (we can help with some checks):

• At least one year of professional care experience.
• An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this).
• The right to work in the UK and verifiable references.

How to apply: create a profile — it takes minutes. We verify your documents and references and profiles typically go live within days of verification. Once live, you can browse clients in Prudhoe and nearby areas across Northumberland, message families directly and agree terms that suit you. We’ll support you with contracts, invoicing and payments once you accept an engagement.

If you’re an experienced carer looking for a different way to work in Prudhoe — more control, clearer terms and meaningful relationships — set up your profile and see what’s available. Living-in placements often bring long-term connections and a steady rhythm that many carers prefer.
