Description

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families looking for live-in support in Swinton. Live-in roles mean living with a client in their home and supporting daily routines around the clock with agreed breaks. Carers travel from across the country for live-in placements. Right now, 49 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

These are ongoing self‑employed opportunities rather than a single post. You set your own hours, choose clients and control your service area, and you set your own rates — many carers work within £145–£160 per day for care work depending on duties. Live-in placements typically pay within a £145–£160 per day day range, while day-to-day hourly care fits into £18.50–£20 per hour.

This work suits experienced carers who want steady, close‑contact roles and the independence of running their own care service. Typical tasks include personal care, medication prompts, meal preparation, companionship, supporting routines and mobility assistance as agreed with the family. You’ll be living in the client’s home and providing continuous presence, with agreed rest breaks and time away arranged in advance.

PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you work. You choose which enquiries to accept and can build a timetable that fits you. Applying takes minutes; profiles typically go live within days of verification.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS (PrimeCarers can help arrange one if needed), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You’ll remain self-employed and responsible for your own tax and National Insurance. The platform supports you with paperwork and secure payment processing so you can focus on the care.

Many carers move to PrimeCarers from agencies to gain control over their work-life balance and earnings while still working with people who need reliable, compassionate help. If you live in or near Swinton — or regularly travel from Pendlebury, Worsley, Eccles, Kearsley, Walkden and Salford — you’ll find opportunities close to home.
