Live-in work suits carers who want continuity of care and the chance to build deeper relationships. You’ll help with personal care, mobility, medication prompts, meal support and companionship, and adapt to each household’s routine. Live-in placements require patience, good communication and the ability to manage your own wellbeing while on shift. Many carers who move away from agency rosters find this role gives more control and more meaningful days. Nearby areas include Marylebone, Mayfair, Fitzrovia, Soho, Greenhill and Chinatown, making travel and short breaks straightforward for many.
