As a platform for experienced carers, we list ongoing opportunities across Ashton under Lyne and nearby areas where families prefer trusted, consistent support.

Overnight care often means sitting nights, responding to alarms, supporting medication prompts, personal care at night and gentle reassurance. Some shifts are waking nights requiring active care throughout; others are sleeping nights where you may rest in the home and respond if needed. This work suits carers who prefer quieter, one-to-one support and who value continuity of care for the same client in their own home in Ashton under Lyne.

On PrimeCarers you are self-employed: you set your own rates and you choose clients, hours and the service area you’ll travel to. Typical pay for overnight work is within £17–£18 per hour depending on the family and the duties required. You’ll see roles that fit hourly or live-in patterns — use £18.50–£20 per hour for daytime/nightly hourly care and £145–£160 per day when a client needs daytime presence as part of a live-in arrangement. You remain in control of which offers you accept.

PrimeCarers finds families and handles the contracts, invoicing and payments for you. We include insurance while you work through the platform, and we manage the admin so you can focus on caring. We operate across Ashton under Lyne and surrounding communities including Ashton St. Michael's, Dukinfield, Ashton Waterloo, Audenshaw, Ashton Hurst and Stalybridge North, as well as on the edge of Manchester where some families prefer local carers.

To join you'll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We don’t list one-off shifts here — the site advertises ongoing self-employed opportunities so you can build longer-term relationships with families.

Applying takes minutes: create your profile, upload documents and references, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days. When you’re matched or contacted, you can review the family’s needs and choose whether to accept. If you’d like to move away from agency rotas and take control of your nights in Ashton under Lyne, PrimeCarers is built to make that straightforward, secure and flexible.
