Description
Live-in care in Ramsgate means living with a client in their home to support daily routines and personal care around the clock, with agreed breaks and time off. Many carers travel from across the country for these placements and stay with a client for weeks or months at a time.
Right now, 85 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
On PrimeCarers you work as a self-employed carer: you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and service area, and decide which Ramsgate placements suit you. Typical pay sits around £145–£160 per day for care roles of this kind. We find clients for you and take care of contracts, invoicing and secure payments — and insurance is included while you are working a placement arranged through PrimeCarers. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
This kind of role suits experienced carers who want more control than agency work usually allows. If you value continuity of care, deep relationships with the people you support, and the freedom to choose your working pattern, live-in in Ramsgate could be a good match. You’ll be supporting mornings, evenings, overnight checks and daily routines, with agreed rest periods and time off when organised with the client.
To join you need:
- At least 1 year of professional care experience
- An Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this)
- The right to work in the UK
- Verifiable references
PrimeCarers is straightforward and practical. You remain independent and set your own terms; we handle client introductions, contracts, invoicing and secure payments so you can focus on care. Many live-in placements in and around Ramsgate come from families looking for consistent, trusted support across Kent, including nearby towns such as Broadstairs, St. Peters, Botany Bay, Margate, Minster and Westgate on Sea. Carers who join us often move from agency roles because they want clearer control over rates, rota and travel.
To apply, create a profile, add your experience and references, and upload DBS details if you have them (or ask us to help). Once verified your profile will go live and you can start choosing Ramsgate placements that suit you. If you’re an experienced carer ready for more autonomy and the rewards of live-in work, PrimeCarers makes the practical side simple so you can get on with providing excellent, person-centred care.
