Live-in Carer Jobs in Slough

Live-in care means living with a client in their home and supporting daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks and private time. You’ll help with personal care, mealtimes, medication prompts, companionship and household support, adapting to each person’s rhythms. Placements take place across Slough and the surrounding area, and carers regularly travel from other parts of the country to take live-in roles. Right now, 101 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This route suits experienced carers who want to step away from agency rotas and take control of their work. As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you choose your clients, hours and service area, and you can accept live-in placements in Slough or nearby towns such as Eton, Windsor, Burroughs, The, Yiewsley, Harmondsworth and Maidenhead. You’ll work directly with families but have the platform’s support for admin, contracts and payments.

How pay works: carers set their own rates and typically charge in the range £145–£160 per day for live-in work. You decide what you’ll accept for each placement, and you keep control of your diary — whether you prefer longer stays in Slough or shorter live-ins further afield.

PrimeCarers finds families for you and handles the practical side: contracts, invoicing and payments are taken care of through the platform, and insurance is included while you work on a placement. That means you can focus on care, not paperwork. Applying takes minutes and profiles usually go live within days after verification.

What we need from you

• At least 1 year of professional care experience.
• An Enhanced DBS check — PrimeCarers can help arrange one if you need it.
• The right to work in the UK and verifiable references from recent employers or clients.
• Willingness to travel for live-in placements and to live in a client’s home for the agreed period.

If you’re based in or near Slough and want a more independent way of working in Berkshire, creating a profile takes just a few minutes. Once verified, you can review and choose live-in opportunities that suit you — whether you’d rather work locally in Slough or travel for longer stays.
