Real experiences from people who started their live-in care journey with us.
"From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of amazing. Everyone—from the recruitment team to the trainers—was incredibly helpful and supportive. I never felt like I was on my own. The onboarding process was smooth, training was clearly explained, and everyone at the office made us feel so welcome. Daniella and Nikki stood out during my interview for their warmth, and Nikki guided me through all the paperwork with ease. I'm so glad I chose to begin my care journey with Consultus."
"Consultus has been incredible. The onboarding was smooth, the training excellent, and every staff member—from reception to care consultants—was professional and supportive. I felt fully informed and confident thanks to the awesome training team. Patty, Lucy, Susan, and the rest of the staff truly care about your success. I also felt very welcomed in the Carer Houses, which helped me settle in straight away. I couldn't ask for a better start to this career."
"Lynda made me feel at ease right from the start, explaining every step of the recruitment process in detail. Everyone I met was so friendly and helpful. Although I had a small hiccup finding the Carer House at first, the team helped sort it out quickly. During training, I connected most with Sarah, Lisa, and Hannah who were fantastic teachers, but Sue and Laura also stood out for their warmth and support. Laura even picked me up from the station and helped with the client handover, which meant so much."
"My experience with Consultus was a complete life change, and while I would have appreciated a bit more structure and a clear timeline upfront, the warmth and professionalism of the team made up for it. Sue Gill, in particular, became like a friend in the office. All the trainers were not only knowledgeable but made each day engaging and supportive. I'd love to see a step-by-step onboarding guide in future—it would really help carers moving from abroad."
"Lynda was a fantastic support throughout the recruitment process, always clear and encouraging. From day one, I felt included and supported—whether it was through training with Sarah, Susan, and Hannah, or the daily check-ins with Lucy and Imogen. Even small things, like being welcomed by name or asked how we were doing, made a big impact. I truly felt the program was of an extremely high standard."
"Everything was explained very clearly, and I had no trouble navigating the onboarding or document uploads. The training was excellent—I felt prepared for the role, though I know there's always more to learn on the job. Every person I encountered was helpful and patient. I really appreciated the clarity and encouragement."

Live-in carers provide one-to-one, 24/7 support, enabling clients to remain independent in the comfort of their own homes. Unlike visiting carers, they live in the client's home and assist with personal care, household tasks, meal prep, and everyday challenges.
Beyond practical support, they offer companionship and emotional reassurance—building strong, meaningful relationships over time. Carers work closely with families and healthcare professionals to ensure care is personalised and consistent.
Typically, two carers rotate shifts, allowing each time to rest while the other provides continuous, reliable care.
Apply todayAs the population of older people is increasing, the demand for live-in care is growing, resulting in the need for more highly trained and skilled care professionals. This makes live-in care a sustainable career choice.
Live-in care also offers competitive rates of pay, and many other benefits, including training and career development. Plus, you'll work in a rewarding environment where your contribution is highly valued by clients, their families, and by us.
Live-in care roles offer flexibility in how you work, ensuring the work-life balance you need to maintain your own connections with what is important to you – whether it's friends, family or passions outside of work.
