Description

Live-in care means living with a client in their own home and supporting daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks. In Uxbridge you'll work closely with one person or a household, helping with personal care, medication prompts, meal routines, companionship and day-to-day safety while respecting the household's privacy and rhythm. Right now, 106 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This route suits experienced carers who want more control than agency shifts allow. Carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates; you choose your clients, hours and service area. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements in Uxbridge and the wider Buckinghamshire area, and typical pay sits around £145–£160 per day depending on the role and responsibilities. Day and hourly ranges vary by client needs: £18.80–£21.50 per hour for hourly care and £145–£160 per day for live-in day rates.

PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles the paperwork so you can focus on care. We take care of contracts, invoicing and payments, and insurance is included while you work. That means less admin than running wholly independent adverts, but with the freedom to accept only the placements that suit you. You remain self-employed and in control of how many hours you take and where you travel to.

To join you need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We verify documents quickly: applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. There are no fixed shifts here — live-in placements are agreed with clients in advance and include planned breaks and time off.

Uxbridge is well linked and there are regular opportunities across the town and nearby areas such as Ickenham, Yiewsley, Hayes, Ruislip, West Drayton and Burroughs, The. If you want a role that offers deeper relationships, predictable routines and the chance to set your own terms, live-in care could be a good fit. Create your profile, choose the clients you want to work with and travel for placements when it suits you — PrimeCarers supports the rest, from contracts to getting paid.
