Live-in Care Assistant
Join the Caremark Northampton Family as a Live-In Care Assistant
We are seeking a live-in carer for a warm and independent 98-year-old lady living in Northampton.
This role would suit someone with rich life experience and a personable, confident nature. The client values a carer who can also be a companion—someone who enjoys conversation, outings, and shared interests.
The ideal carer would:
✅ Be well-travelled and culturally aware
✅ Speak French confidently
✅ Have a keen interest in news and current affairs
✅ Enjoy cooking and preparing home-style meals
✅ Love shopping, particularly at Marks & Spencer, boutiques, antique shops, and car boot sales
✅ Be confident, a good listener, and able to help the client with writing her biography
🔸 A strong understanding of British culture and traditions—ideally shaped by having grown up in the UK—would help the carer connect well with the client’s background and lifestyle.
If you think you (or someone you know) would be a great match, we’d love to hear from you!
