Description

PrimeCarers connects experienced self-employed carers with families in Stanfield le Hope and across Thurrock for ongoing live-in care roles. Live-in care means living with a client in their home and supporting daily routines around the clock with agreed breaks; carers travel from across the country for these placements.
Right now, 110 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This kind of work suits experienced carers who want more control: you choose your clients, hours and service area, and you set your own rates as a self-employed professional. Many carers on our platform charge within £148–£164 per day; typical hourly-care and live-in day ranges are shown as £18.80–£20.50 per hour and £148–£164 per day to help you decide what to ask for.

In Stanfield le Hope you’ll be working with people who need practical help with daily routines, medication prompts, personal care, companionship and household support. Live-in care is about building trust and steady routines, so this role is best for carers who bring at least a year of professional care experience and the compassion to live alongside someone while respecting their home and independence.

PrimeCarers is aimed at carers ready to move away from agency models without losing back-office support. We find clients for you, handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and include insurance while you work. You remain self-employed: you choose which placements suit you and negotiate the terms directly with the family.

To join you need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check — PrimeCarers can help arrange an up-to-date DBS if you need one. We also ask that you can manage agreed live-in breaks and any travel to placements; many carers travel from outside the local area for matches in Stanfield le Hope and neighbouring communities such as Corringham, West Tilbury, Langdon Hills, Laindon, Tilbury and Pitsea.

Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, upload your documents and references, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days. You can then browse live-in opportunities, speak with families directly and choose placements that fit your life and values. If you want independent, reliable work in Stanfield le Hope with back-office support and control over your rates and hours, PrimeCarers is built for you.
