Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Stalbridge

Live-in care roles in Stalbridge mean you live with a client in their home and support daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for placements and stay for weeks or months depending on the arrangement. Right now, 107 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 your clients, hours and the area you’ll work in. Typical live-in day rates sit around £145–£160 per day. We find clients for you and take care of contracts, invoicing and payments — and insurance is included while you work, so you can focus on care, not paperwork.

This kind of role suits experienced carers who want more control than agency shifts offer. If you’re used to supporting personal care, medication prompting, meal preparation, mobility assistance and companionship, live-in work in Stalbridge can be a calm, consistent alternative. Placements often cover local and rural homes across Dorset and nearby towns such as Sturminster Newton, Sherborne, Wincanton, Blackford, Shaftesbury and Mere, so travel may be required but you’ll know that up front.

To join PrimeCarers you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We verify profiles quickly: applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. These listings are ongoing self-employed opportunities, not one specific role.

Ready to take more control of your work? Create your profile, upload your documents and tell us the kind of live-in placements you’re interested in. Once verified, we’ll show you suitable matches and handle the contracts and payments so you can choose the roles that fit your life in and around Stalbridge.
