Live-in Carer Jobs in Showell Green

Live-in care in Showell Green is about being a trusted, everyday presence — living with a client in their home and supporting routines around the clock, with agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements and choose arrangements that suit them. Right now, 121 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

As a live-in carer you'll provide personal care, help with medication prompts, meal preparation, companionship and support with household routines. Night checks, companionship and prompting are common parts of the role alongside practical tasks. Placements are often close to town centres and residential areas across the West Midlands, including families in and around Showell Green and Sparkhill, Moseley, Sparkbrook, Wake Green, Balsall Heath and Tyseley. Carers who enjoy one-to-one work and building relationships with clients tend to find live-in roles especially rewarding.

Pay and working patterns are flexible because carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates. Typical rates for live-in roles are shown as £145–£160 per day and you can also expect to see ranges presented as £18.50–£20 per hour for hourly care and £145–£160 per day for live-in day rates on the platform. You choose your clients, hours and service area — many carers prefer longer placements that give continuity of care and predictable routines, while others pick shorter stays or respite support.

To join you’ll need:

• At least 1 year of professional care experience;
• An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one);
• The right to work in the UK;
• Verifiable references from recent employers or clients.

PrimeCarers does the admin so you can focus on care: we find clients, handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work. You remain self-employed, set your own fees and pick the placements that suit you. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you can be available for placements in Showell Green quickly.
