31 live-in carers live within 10 miles of Keighley town centre, and 125 within 25 miles. The nearest is based less than 2 miles away. Their advertised rates put a typical week at £1,085, with our fee included, and the middle half of them between £1,015 and £1,145.

A live-in carer moves into the home in Keighley and is there day and night: personal care, meals, medicines prompted at the right times, company, and someone in the house overnight. On PrimeCarers you choose the carer yourself from the profiles of those who can reach Keighley, agree the rate on their profile, and we set up the contract and the weekly payments. Families arrange it after an operation or a hospital stay, for dementia, for a couple, or when visits are no longer enough. How live-in care works goes through it step by step.

From carers' own profiles, October 2026. Distances are straight-line, from the centre of Keighley to where each carer says they live. Counts are the live-in carers with a photo and a live-in rate that our area searches return, at most 100 per area, so busy areas have more. Rates include our fee and are advertised day rates multiplied by seven; typical means the median. Availability for your dates needs confirming with each carer.

Help paying

Help with the cost of live-in care in Keighley

Keighley is in the Bradford council area. Ask your council for a care needs assessment and, where relevant, a financial assessment.

Depending on needs, Attendance Allowance and NHS Continuing Healthcare can help too, and so can pensions, savings and the value in a home.
