Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Staveley

Live‑in care in Staveley is about being alongside someone in their own home, helping with daily routines, companionship and personal care while they keep their independence. You’ll live with the person for the agreed period and work with them around the clock, taking the breaks you both agree in advance. Right now, 33 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

These roles suit experienced carers who want the continuity of living with a client and the freedom to manage their working life. Many carers travel from across the country for live‑in placements in Staveley and the surrounding areas of Cumbria, staying for weeks or months depending on the arrangement. Live‑in work can be more settled than shift patterns and often includes time for household tasks, meal support and sitting or companionship in quieter periods. Typical pay options are shown as £144–£160 per day with day and hourly guides like £144–£160 per day and £15–£25 per hour.

PrimeCarers is an introductory platform for self‑employed carers. That means you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and service area, and remain self‑employed throughout. We find you clients, handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you’re working on a booking. Many carers switching from agency work value that control and the clearer paperwork PrimeCarers supplies.

Requirements to join are straightforward: at least 1 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 do check references and identity before profiles go live, so make sure you have those ready. Applying takes minutes; profiles typically go live within days of verification.

If you’re based in or willing to travel to Staveley, you’ll also see opportunities across nearby towns such as Windermere, Bowness on Windermere, Kendal, Clackwell, Ambleside and Milnthorpe. Live‑in placements often attract carers who enjoy the Lake District lifestyle while offering dependable care to local families.

To apply, create your profile, add your experience and references and choose the live‑in options that suit you. You remain in control of which clients you accept and how you structure your working days.
