Description
Overnight care in Ashby de la Zouch suits experienced carers who want meaningful night work and the freedom to run their own service. On PrimeCarers you’ll support people in their own homes with either waking nights — active support through the night — or sleeping nights where you remain available but can rest between calls. You decide the nights you take, the clients you’ll work with and the areas you cover around Ashby de la Zouch and wider Leicestershire. Right now, 9 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Typical roles include checking on a client at intervals, administering medication, supporting with personal care, or providing companionship and reassurance overnight. Shifts vary by client needs; you may be asked to stay awake or to be on-call while a client sleeps.

This kind of work suits carers who want dependable night hours without agency rota constraints. If you’re used to agency or bank work and are thinking about working for yourself, PrimeCarers handles the admin so you can focus on care: we find clients, manage contracts, handle invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work.
