Description

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families who need overnight support in Benchill and nearby areas. As an overnight carer you’ll provide waking or sleeping-night care in a client’s own home so families can rest safely. You choose the clients, the hours and the service area while PrimeCarers handles contracts, invoicing and payments and provides insurance while you work.
Right now, 24 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Overnight roles vary: some shifts are waking nights with hands-on support and observations, others are sleeping nights with regular checks. These roles suit carers who are confident working independently, are used to assessing risk, and can build trusting relationships with clients and family members. You’ll be mobile in Benchill and may accept bookings across Sharston, Newall Green, Wythenshawe, Baguley, Peel Hall and Northenden and the surrounding parts of Manchester.

Pay is set by you — many carers on the platform work within £17–£18 per hour depending on the client’s needs and the hours offered. Carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed, which means you set your own rates and availability and choose which referrals to accept. PrimeCarers takes care of contracts, invoicing and payments so you can focus on care, with insurance included for the time you’re working.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one) and verifiable references. We verify documents and references before profiles go live — applying takes minutes and profiles typically appear within days of verification. You remain in control: accept only the clients and nights that fit your life.

Working nights can be demanding but also rewarding. You’ll often work one-to-one, use your skills to keep someone safe and comfortable through the night, and provide families with real peace of mind. PrimeCarers supports its carers with clear contracts, prompt payments and a straightforward platform so you can build repeat bookings and steady work on your terms.

If you’re ready to move away from rigid agency rotas and want to run your own care work in Benchill, creating a profile takes only a few minutes. Once verified, you can start receiving client introductions and choose the overnight roles that suit you.
