Night Care Assistant Jobs in California

Work as a self-employed night care assistant in California, supporting people in their own homes through waking or sleeping nights so families can rest. These ongoing roles suit experienced carers who want to leave agency rotas and take control of their schedule, clients and pay.

Right now, 26 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Night work varies: some shifts are waking nights with personal care, medication prompts, moving and positioning or companionship; others are sleeping nights with regular checks and quick responses if a client needs support. In California you’ll find a mix of needs and a chance to build long-term relationships with families who value continuity and experience.

If you’re used to agency life but want more control, PrimeCarers lets you work on a self-employed basis: you set your own rates and choose which clients, hours and service area you accept. Typical pay sits around £17–£18 per hour with specific roles falling into £18.50–£20 per hour for hourly-only work or £145–£160 per day for live-in day rates where applicable. You remain free to accept or decline any shift.

PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you’re working on a job. That means less admin and clearer pay routes compared with traditional agency paperwork. Applying takes minutes; profiles typically go live within days of verification.

The kind of carers we’re looking for:

• At least 1 year of professional care experience, ideally with night work.
• An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one).
• The right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
• Comfortable working independently, with good communication and basic record-keeping.

You’ll choose the postcode areas you cover, so you can work close to home around California and nearby towns such as Harts Green, Bartley Green, Maypole, Middle Quinton, Harborne and Weoley Hill. We recruit across the West Midlands, so whether you’re in central or outer areas you can pick nights that fit family life or daytime commitments.

How to get started: create a profile, upload IDs and references, and tell us about your night-care experience. PrimeCarers supports the paperwork, helps with DBS where needed and introduces you to families looking for trusted, regular overnight support. Many carers moving from agency roles find they keep the clinically important work they love while gaining control over when and where they work.
