Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Southwell

Live-in care in Southwell means staying in a client's home and supporting their daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements, so you'll meet a wide range of lifestyles and support needs while working closely with one household. PrimeCarers connects you directly with families across Southwell and nearby areas, helping you take control of your work.

Right now, 114 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This work suits experienced carers who value continuity and close relationships. As a live-in care assistant you'll help with personal care, meal prep, medication prompts, companionship and practical household support. You will be living in the client's home, so good communication, respect for privacy and energy for day-to-day tasks are essential. Many carers who switch from agency work appreciate the deeper rapport they can build in live-in roles and the clearer routines that come with staying with one client.

Pay and flexibility are in your hands. Carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates. Typical pay for roles like these falls within £148–£161 per day. Use £18.89–£20.30 per hour for hourly visits or £148–£161 per day as a guide for day rates when discussing live-in terms with families. You choose the clients and hours that suit you; PrimeCarers handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you work.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We ask for clear checks and references because families invite you into their homes and want reassurance. The application takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you can start seeing matches quickly.

PrimeCarers supports self-employed carers who want more control than traditional agency routes.

We provide straightforward paperwork, transparent invoicing and support if questions arise.
