Description
Live-in care in Warrington means you’ll live with a client in their home, supporting daily routines around the clock and taking agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for these placements, bringing experience and stability to people who want to stay at home. You’ll see families across Warrington and the surrounding area, including Birchwood, Newton le Willows, Earlestown, Golbourne, Widnes and Runcorn.
Right now, 50 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
This is ongoing, self-employed work where you choose who you work with, the hours you accept and the local area you cover. Carers on PrimeCarers set their own rates and can expect to see roles in the range £145–£160 per day depending on experience and the support required. For clarity, typical hourly and live‑in ranges are shown as £18.50–£20 per hour and £145–£160 per day respectively.
If you’re used to agency systems but want more control, live-in care suits experienced, compassionate carers who can manage personal care, medication prompts, meal preparation, companionship and household routines. You’ll be the person families rely on day and night, so excellent communication, observational skills and at least one year of professional care experience are essential.
PrimeCarers handles the admin so you can focus on care. We find families, arrange contracts, manage invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you are working on a placement. You remain self-employed and free to set your own terms, but you’ll have that back‑office support when you need it.
To join you’ll need an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help you arrange one if needed), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We verify applicants quickly: applying takes minutes, and profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you can start browsing opportunities without long delays.
Working as a live-in carer can be intense but hugely rewarding. You’ll build relationships, support independence and make a real difference to someone’s everyday life. If you want more control than agency work offers and you meet the entry requirements, PrimeCarers can connect you with families across Warrington and beyond in Cheshire.
Apply in minutes and get your profile live within days — it’s straightforward to get started and see the kinds of placements that suit you.
