Night Care Assistant Jobs in Appleby in Westmorland

We’re looking for experienced carers in Appleby in Westmorland to provide overnight support in people’s own homes. These are ongoing, self-employed opportunities for waking or sleeping nights where you’ll support a client so families can rest, and where you control the hours and the approach you take. There is 1 family currently looking for care in the wider area.

Overnight care can mean being awake and responding throughout the night, or providing a sleep-shift presence with checks and reassurance. Either way you’ll be working in the client’s home and helping them remain safe, comfortable and settled until morning. Many carers who prefer nights tell us they value the calm routines and the chance to provide continuity of care in Appleby in Westmorland and the surrounding area.

This work suits experienced, practical carers who want to move away from agency rosters and take control of their diary. You’ll be self-employed on PrimeCarers, able to set your own rates and choose the clients, hours and service area that fit you. Typical rates for overnight care sit within £15–£25 per hour, and you can decide whether you charge by the hour (£15–£25 per hour) or offer live-in day rates (£142.50–£160 per day) where appropriate.

PrimeCarers finds clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you’re working on a booking. That means you keep the flexibility of self-employment without doing all the admin. We have clients in and around Appleby in Westmorland and nearby towns such as Kirkby Stephen, Penrith, Alston, Sedbergh, Staveley and Kendal in Cumbria, so you can focus on care rather than paperwork.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check. If you need a DBS, PrimeCarers can help arrange one. You’ll create a profile, upload references and documentation, and set your service area and availability.

Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. Once live, PrimeCarers will introduce suitable families; you review the details and choose which bookings to accept. If you’re an experienced night carer in Appleby in Westmorland keen to work more independently while keeping admin and payments simple, this is a straightforward way to make that change.
