Description

Live-in care in Quinton means living with a client in their home and supporting daily routines around the clock with agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements, bringing skilled, compassionate support to people who prefer to stay at home.
Right now, 109 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

These ongoing, self-employed opportunities suit experienced carers who want more control than agency work gives. You set your own rates, choose your own clients, hours and service area, and can negotiate either hourly or live-in day arrangements. Typical pay is flexible: many carers advertise within £18.50–£20 per hour for hourly care or £145–£160 per day for live-in days, and you can aim for whatever reflects your experience and the support required.

PrimeCarers finds clients for you across Quinton and the wider West Midlands, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you are working. That means you can focus on delivering care, relationship-building and reliable routines rather than paperwork. Carers often choose placements in Quinton itself or nearby towns such as Maypole, South Woodgate, California, Bartley Green, Harts Green and Beech Lanes.

This kind of work is best for people who have at least a year of professional care experience and who are comfortable living in someone’s home for the agreed period. Live-in shifts include planned breaks and time off negotiated with the client, so you get rest while still providing continuous, personalised support.

What we need from you

  • At least 1 year of professional care experience
  • An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this)
  • The right to work in the UK
  • Verifiable references
