Live-in Carer Jobs in Worthing

Live-in care in Worthing gives experienced carers the chance to be part of someone’s everyday life by living with them in their own home. As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you choose your clients, set your own hours and travel for placements across West Sussex and beyond. Live-in roles involve round-the-clock presence with agreed breaks; many carers travel from across the country to Worthing and nearby towns such as Shoreham by Sea, Steyning, Southwick, Littlehampton, Arundel and Hove to take live-in work.

Right now, 112 live-in placements are currently open across the wider region.

Pay is set by you. Many carers on the platform set rates within £145–£160 per day. Typical hourly care and live-in ranges are shown on profiles as £18.80–£21.50 per hour and £145–£160 per day, helping families understand expectations while you keep control of your pricing.

Live-in work suits carers who prefer continuity and deeper relationships over shift-based rota work. You’ll support daily routines, personal care, medication prompts, meal preparation and companionship, and be available overnight with agreed rest breaks. It’s a good fit if you’re used to working independently, like predictable routines and can respect a household’s privacy. Worthing’s coastal community often looks for carers who can bring calm, reliability and practical experience.

PrimeCarers handles the admin so you can focus on care. We match you with families, manage contracts, handle invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work. You remain self-employed, choose who you accept, and keep control of your diary — whether you want placements close to Worthing or are happy to travel from elsewhere in the country.

Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, upload your documents and references, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days.
