Description
Live-in carer opportunities around Tregaron mean you can stay with a client in their own home, support daily routines and provide companionship and personal care throughout the day and night with agreed breaks. Placements attract carers who travel from across the country for a settled live-in role in Ceredigion and the surrounding area. Right now, 64 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
This is for experienced carers who want more control than typical agency work. On PrimeCarers you are self-employed: you set your own rates, choose your own clients, hours and service area and accept only the jobs that suit you. We find clients, handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work — leaving you to focus on care and a steady live-in routine in Tregaron.
Pay and flexibility are central. Many carers on the site work to rates that reflect their experience and the demands of live-in care. Typical earnings fall within £145–£160 per day, and as a self-employed carer you decide the hourly and day rates you’ll accept. Live-in work involves agreeing patterns of sleep and active hours with each family and taking scheduled breaks; carers often travel to Tregaron or beyond for placements that suit their lifestyle.
Requirements to join are straightforward and designed to keep standards high:
- At least 1 year of professional care experience
- An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one)
- The right to work in the UK
- Verifiable references
