Description

Live-in care on PrimeCarers is for experienced carers who want to live with a client in their home and support daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks. You’ll provide personal care, companionship, medication prompts, meal support and help with mobility — all while keeping the person’s independence and dignity at the centre of each day in West Bridgefield. Right now, 117 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements, and West Bridgefield attracts people who prefer quieter Nottinghamshire towns and villages. You’ll sleep at the client’s home when on duty, have agreed rest periods and time away, and arrange handovers as needed. These roles suit calm, reliable carers used to working independently and building long-term relationships with families.

How the work is arranged: Carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates. You choose the clients you’ll work with, the hours and the local service area. PrimeCarers finds families, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and insurance is included while you work. Profiles typically go live within days once we’ve verified your details.

Pay and flexibility: Live-in pay varies by client and location; many carers advertise within £146–£161 per day for a day or use an hourly approach of £19–£20.80 per hour. Overall, typical rates for these roles are around £146–£161 per day. You remain in control of what you charge and which offers you accept.

Who we’re looking for:

  • 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 from recent care roles

If you’re thinking about leaving agency work, PrimeCarers gives you scheduling freedom without the admin of finding clients. You’ll still have clear contracts and paid invoices, but you’ll be your own boss day-to-day. Many carers who join from nearby towns such as Carlton, Netherfield, Beeston, Cotgrave, Arnold and Bulwell find better work-life balance and pay clarity.

How to apply: Creating a profile takes minutes. Upload your experience, references and DBS details (or tell us if you need help arranging one). Once verified, profiles usually go live within days and families can start sending offers. You remain free to accept, negotiate or decline any booking.

If you want steady live-in work in West Bridgefield while setting your own terms, PrimeCarers makes it straightforward to move from agency shifts to self-employed live-in care. Get started and see the matches that fit your experience and lifestyle.
