living in

Dwelling at now

Living in describes a domestic employee—nanny, housekeeper, caregiver—who resides at the employer's home rather than commuting: We're looking for a living-in au pair.

The arrangement typically includes room and board as part of compensation.

Often hyphenated when used as a modifier before a noun.
