Description

Live-in care in Willenhall means living with a client in their own home and supporting daily routines around the clock, with agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements; others are local to the West Midlands and prefer shorter travel. Live-in work suits experienced carers who want continuity, deeper relationships and more control over when and where they work.

Right now, 110 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

On PrimeCarers you work as a self-employed carer: you set your own rates, choose your clients, your hours and the service area you’ll work in. Typical pay varies by case and needs — expect ranges such as £145–£160 per day for care roles; live-in day ranges and hourly ranges are shown on each profile as £145–£160 per day and £18.50–£20 per hour so you can pick what fits.

What the platform handles for you: we find families in and around Willenhall, manage contracts, handle invoicing and payments, and provide insurance cover for the time you’re working. That means less admin and more time caring. Many carers who move from agency work appreciate keeping clinical choice and the ability to build lasting, person-centred relationships.

Who this suits: if you have at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references, you can apply. You’ll need to be comfortable living in someone’s home and working flexibly around their routines. Carers travel to live-in placements from across the country or live locally to Willenhall and nearby areas such as Wednesfield, Darlaston, Short Heath, Bilston, Moxley and Wednesbury.

How flexible is it? You choose which enquiries to accept, negotiate any days off and agreed breaks for your live-in role, and set your own working terms within the platform’s booking system. PrimeCarers supports the contract stage and the invoicing so you get paid for the time you work without having to chase families.

How to apply: creating a profile takes minutes. Add your experience, upload references and your DBS where you have it — PrimeCarers can assist with DBS checks if needed. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, and families in Willenhall and the West Midlands review them directly.
