Flexible working

 We work together to give our carers the work they want and need; balancing carer schedules with our client needs, so that everyone is happy.

 

What you will bring to the role

Our carers come from all walks of life but they all have one thing in common: a desire to care and to make a difference.

We are looking for dedicated, compassionate, reliable individuals with strong initiative and a friendly, helpful manner.

Our carers come from many different backgrounds with varying levels of experience. Our live-in carers have been secretaries, bank managers, mothers, fathers, students, nurses, soldiers and teachers. Some have worked as carers previously and some have no professional care experience at all.

As a Christies Carer you will receive the training, ongoing support, and guidance to equip you with care skills and confidence to help you be the best carer you can be.

What it’s like being a live-in carer

In one word: rewarding. Each day, you make a difference in the lives of your clients and their families, sharing some extraordinary moments together.

You will live in the home of your client, assisting with day-to-day care needs, light housekeeping, shopping, meal preparation, home hygiene, and basic pet care (if applicable). 

Our award-winning training programme will give you all the skills and confidence needed to provide personal care, mobility support, including the use of hoists, medication management, and companionship.

One of the most important aspects of being a live-in carer is providing emotional and social support to clients by taking part in their hobbies and interests, meeting with friends or family, and encouraging their community involvement. In doing so, you help make their life as enjoyable as possible, and we guarantee that seeing your client happy and thriving makes being a live-in carer one of the best careers out there.
