Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Silloth

Live-in care in Silloth means living with a client in their home to support daily routines around the clock with agreed breaks. You’ll help with personal care, medication prompts, mealtime support, companionship and household tasks that keep someone safe and independent at home. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements in Silloth and the wider Cumbria area, staying with one household for agreed periods rather than working shifts across multiple sites.

Right now, 24 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 the clients you want to work with, and pick the hours and service area that suit you. Live-in roles typically pay in the range £145–£160 per day, and you decide your day or hourly rate for a placement. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work, so you can focus on delivering care rather than administration.

Live-in work in Silloth suits experienced, practical carers who are happy to live alongside someone for an agreed period and who value continuity of care. It’s intensive but rewarding: you’ll often be the main point of contact for daily routines and a key presence in the home. Carers coming to Silloth also cover nearby towns and villages such as Aspatria, Wigton, Annan, Maryport, Cockermouth and Gretna.

To join you need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this if you need it), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We check documents and references to protect clients and carers alike. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

If you’re used to agency life but want more control over who you work for, how you work and what you charge, PrimeCarers is built for self-employed carers like you. There’s clear, honest admin support from our team and a straightforward process to get you matched with suitable live-in opportunities around Silloth and elsewhere in Cumbria.
