Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Washwood Heath

Live-in care roles in Washwood Heath suit experienced carers who prefer continuity, close relationships and practical support for people in their own homes. As a live-in carer you’ll live with a client, help with daily routines and personal care, provide companionship and be on hand outside agreed sleep and break periods. Many carers travel from across the UK to take these roles and stay for weeks or months at a time. Right now, 121 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

These opportunities are offered to self-employed carers who set their own rates and choose their clients, hours and service area. Typical pay varies by case and experience; many PrimeCarers live-in placements fall within £148–£163.50 per day. You’ll agree the day rate and breaks with a family before you commit, so you keep control over the work you accept.

PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles the paperwork: contracts, invoicing and payments are taken care of, and you are covered by insurance while you work. That means less admin and more time doing the care you’re trained for in Washwood Heath and the wider West Midlands.

This kind of work suits carers who already have professional experience and want independence. Live-in roles require flexibility, practical confidence around the house, good communication with families and the ability to manage personal and practical needs safely. Carers often travel from nearby areas such as Ward End, Hodge Hill, Bromford, Birches Green, Saltley and Alum Rock as well as further afield.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one) and verifiable references. We’ll guide you through verification and will ask for proof of your background and experience before your profile goes live.

Applying takes minutes: complete a short profile, upload checks and references, and we’ll verify your details. Profiles typically go live within days once verification is complete. You remain free to accept or decline any client introductions and to set the terms that suit you, including working patterns and agreed breaks.
