Description

Overnight care in Bordesley means supporting people in their own homes through waking or sleeping nights so families can rest. You’ll work nights — helping with personal care, medication prompts, repositioning, reassurance and monitoring — while offering families the peace of mind that comes from a steady, experienced carer. This is for self‑employed carers who want to choose the clients and hours that suit them in Bordesley and the wider West Midlands.
Right now, 31 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

These roles suit experienced carers who prefer nights to days, and who want more control than agency work typically allows. You might do a series of regular sleeping nights, waking-night shifts where you remain alert, or a mixture depending on client needs. Shifts take place in people’s homes across Bordesley and nearby areas including Deritend, Digbeth, Chinese Quarter, Birmingham City Centre, Birmingham and Gosta Green — you pick the service area you’ll cover.

Pay is set by you: carers on PrimeCarers are self‑employed and set their own rates. Typical rates for overnight care on the platform are around £17–£18 per hour. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work, so you can focus on care rather than paperwork.

Requirements to join are straightforward and aimed at ensuring safe, professional care. You’ll need:

  • At least 1 year of professional care experience;
  • An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one if you don’t already have it);
  • The right to work in the UK;
  • And verifiable references from recent care roles.

PrimeCarers supports you with onboarding, client matching and secure payment processing. Insurance is included while you are working with a client through the platform. You choose which clients to accept, your hours, and how far you’ll travel — ideal if you want to stay local in Bordesley or travel into neighbouring parts of the West Midlands.

Applying takes minutes and is done via a simple online profile. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, and once live you can start seeing opportunities that match your preferences.
