Description
Live-in care in Woburn is for experienced carers who want to live with a client in their home and support daily life around the clock with agreed breaks. Many carers travel from across the country for live-in placements, bringing continuity, companionship and dependable support. You’ll help with routines, personal care, medication prompts, meals and household tasks as agreed with the family and the client.
This page advertises ongoing self-employed opportunities — not a single role. As a PrimeCarers self-employed carer you set your own rates and choose your clients, hours and service area. Typical live-in day roles sit in the range £146–£162 per day, and hourly care typically falls in £19–£21.50 per hour; overall many carers on the platform work within £146–£162 per day depending on the care needed and location. Right now, 117 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.
Live-in care suits people who want deeper relationships with the people they support and who are comfortable making a client’s home their workplace. It’s hard, rewarding work that needs patience, good observational skills and the ability to manage day-to-day tasks independently. You’ll be expected to work agreed hours with regular, planned breaks and to travel where required for placements. Woburn’s local communities and nearby towns make it a varied area for live-in work.
PrimeCarers makes running your self-employed work easier: we introduce you to families, handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you are working. You remain in control — choose clients in Woburn, nearby or further afield; our carers commonly accept placements from places such as Woburn Sands, Fenny Stratford, Leighton Buzzard, Flitwick, Linslade and Bletchley. We support you through the administrative side so you can focus on care.
To join you need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We verify quickly: applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. Bedfordshire-based carers and those willing to travel both find suitable options.
If you’re ready to move away from agency restrictions and take control of your work, create your PrimeCarers profile. You’ll remain self-employed, choose which families to meet and set your rates. Many carers find live-in work around Woburn offers deeper job satisfaction and stronger relationships than shift-by-shift roles.
