Live-in Carer Jobs in Upton

Live-in carer work in Upton means living with a client in their home and supporting their daily routines, from personal care and medication prompts to companionship and overnight presence. You’ll be part of someone’s life day-to-day, providing continuous support with agreed breaks and rest periods built into the plan. Many live-in carers travel from across the country for placements, and PrimeCarers connects you with families across Upton and the wider Halton area so you can find the right fit for you.

Right now, 42 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This kind of work suits experienced carers who value continuity of care and want to build deeper relationships with clients. If you’re used to shift-based agency work but want clearer arrangements and the freedom to choose clients, live-in placements around Upton offer predictability in the day-to-day routine while still giving you autonomy over your schedule. Carers set their own rates, choose clients, hours and the service area they’ll cover.

Pay is flexible because carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates. Typical ranges are shown on the platform: see £145–£160 per day for general roles, £18.50–£20 per hour for hourly care and £145–£160 per day for live-in days. PrimeCarers finds clients for you and takes care of contracts, invoicing and payments — insurance is included while you’re working on a placement.

To join you’ll need 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. If you already have training or specialist experience — dementia, complex needs or palliative support — highlight it on your profile; families in and around Upton often look for those skills.

Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, upload your references and DBS (or indicate you need help getting one), and a team member will verify your details. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, and then you can review and choose the placements that suit you. Many carers travel to placements from other areas to work in Upton, and we frequently match carers with families in nearby towns including Wallasey, Hoylake, Birkenhead, Heswall, Bebington and Liverpool.
