Live-in Carer Jobs in Teddington

Live-in care means living with a client in their own home and supporting daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks. Many carers travel to Teddington for placements from across the country, bringing dependable, experienced support to families who want continuity of care. Right now, 108 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This work suits experienced carers who prefer to work directly with families and control their own time. On PrimeCarers you are self-employed: you set your own rates and choose which clients, hours and service area suit you. Typical pay is within £145–£160 per day depending on experience and care needs. For clarity, many carers quote within £18.80–£20.90 per hour for hourly care and £145–£160 per day for a live-in day.

Teddington is a friendly area with a variety of households needing companionship, dementia support, personal care and medication prompts. You may also find work across Richmond upon Thames and nearby neighbourhoods such as Strawberry Hill, Hampton Hill, Hampton Wick, Ham, Twickenham and Eel Pie Island. Placements range from support with personal care to being a reliable presence for evening routines and overnight checks.

PrimeCarers handles the non-care admin so you can get on with caring. We find clients, prepare contracts, invoice and collect payments, and include insurance while you work. You remain self-employed and decide your availability, terms and client matches. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

To join you must have 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’ll ask for documents to verify identity, references and DBS status before your profile is published in Teddington and the wider Richmond upon Thames area.

If you’re considering leaving agency shifts for more control and clearer pay, PrimeCarers is set up for carers who value flexibility and direct relationships with families. Create a profile, choose clients that match your skills and travel for live-in placements when it suits you. Many carers find live-in work rewarding because it builds strong bonds and offers predictable routines.
