Description
Live-in care assistants support someone in their own home, sharing daily routines and being available around the clock with agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements based in Redditch and the wider Worcestershire area, staying with clients to provide companionship, personal care and household support. These roles suit experienced, compassionate carers who want stability, close relationships and control over how they work.
Right now, 126 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
This is ongoing, self-employed work rather than a single shift. On PrimeCarers you set your own terms: you decide which clients to accept, the hours you work and the service area you cover. You’ll see typical pay bands up front — live-in day rates and hourly care ranges are shown on profiles, for example £145–£160 per day — and you can set your own rate within that context.
Live-in care involves living in the client’s home and supporting daily life: personal care, meal preparation, medication reminders, household tasks and companionship. Work rhythms vary: some placements need a night presence with agreed sleep or awake breaks, others are more active during the day. Carers come from across the Midlands and further afield to take live-in roles near Redditch and around places like Midlands, Bromsgrove, Longbridge, Hawkesley, West Heath and Rednal.
This opportunity is a good fit if you have at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), and verifiable references. PrimeCarers handles client matching, contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you’re working, so you can focus on care rather than admin.
Applying takes minutes: create a profile, add your experience and references, and complete verification. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, and once live you’ll start receiving suitable enquiries and offers. You remain self-employed throughout, free to accept or decline any placements.
If you’re used to agency routines but want more control, live-in work through PrimeCarers lets you build longer-term relationships and choose the balance that suits you. Ready to find live-in care assistant roles in Redditch that work around your life? Sign up, verify and start connecting.
