Live-in Carer Jobs in Stepney

Live‑in care in Stepney means living with a client in their home and supporting daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for placements and stay for weeks or months at a time, offering continuity and companionship as well as practical support.

Right now, 118 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

If you’re thinking of moving on from agency rotas, PrimeCarers is built for experienced, self‑employed carers who want more control. You set your own rates, choose the clients you’ll work with, decide your hours and define your service area. We introduce you to families in Stepney and nearby areas so you can pick placements that fit your life and skills.

Pay & how it works: Typical pay is £145–£160 per day. For shorter support shifts our typical hourly range is £18.80–£20 per hour and for live‑in days refer to £145–£160 per day. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you’re working on a placement. That means you can focus on care, not paperwork.

Who this suits: This role suits carers with a minimum of one year’s professional care experience who want to deliver person‑centred, in‑home support. Live‑in work often includes help with daily routines, medication prompts, mobility assistance and emotional support. You should be comfortable living in someone’s home and working flexibly around their needs.

Requirements to join: You 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’ll guide you through verification so your profile can go live quickly. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

Placements are available across Stepney and the wider Tower Hamlets area, and in neighbouring neighbourhoods including Bethnal Green, Ratcliff, Mile End, Cambridge Heath, Shadwell and Whitechapel.
