Live-in Care Assistant Jobs in Winchcombe

Live-in care in Winchcombe offers the chance to provide round-the-clock support while living with a client in their own home. As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you’ll help with daily routines, medication prompts, companionship and personal care, with agreed breaks built into every placement. Carers travel from across the country for live-in roles and many people choose placements in and around Winchcombe. Right now, 117 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

This kind of work suits experienced carers who want continuity and deeper relationships rather than short shifts. Live-in roles mean you’ll be part of someone’s daily life: preparing meals, supporting morning and evening routines, accompanying outings when needed and providing safe, reliable presence overnight. You’ll arrange agreed rest breaks and time away from the home, and many placements are local to Winchcombe while others are within Gloucestershire and nearby towns like Greet, Cheltenham, Tewkesbury, Evesham, Chipping Campden and Northleach.

Pay and flexibility are different here — you are self-employed and set your own rates. Typical live-in roles on the platform fall within £146–£161.50 per day and you choose the clients, hours and service area that suit you. PrimeCarers handles client-finding, contracts, invoicing and payments, and insurance is included while you work. Many carers who leave agency work appreciate the control over their diary and the chance to plan longer stays.

To join you’ll 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 ask for clear references so families can feel confident; if your DBS or references need updating we’ll explain the quickest way to get verified. You’ll remain self-employed and responsible for your own tax and National Insurance arrangements.

How to apply: it takes minutes to complete your profile. Upload your experience, add references and the documents we ask for. Once verified, profiles typically go live within days and you can begin hearing from families looking for live-in support in Winchcombe and across Gloucestershire. If you want the stability of longer placements and the freedom to set your own terms, this is a straightforward route to take control of your care work.
