Description
Overnight care in Carnoustie means supporting people in their own homes through waking or sleeping nights so families can rest. As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you pick the clients, hours and service area that suit you — whether you want local rounds in Carnoustie or to cover nearby towns such as Monifieth, Arbroath, Tayport, Letham, Newport on Tay and Woodhaven. Right now, 4 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
What the role involves: you’ll provide compassionate night support tailored to each person’s needs. That can be hands-on care, checking and supporting wellbeing through the night, or being on-call while the person sleeps. Work is in private homes across Carnoustie and the surrounding parts of Angus, often for families who need reliable, experienced overnight help.
Pay and flexibility: carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates. Typical rates for overnight care fall around £17–£17.50 per hour. You choose which clients to accept and when to work. PrimeCarers finds clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work.
Who this suits: experienced carers who want more control than agency life — more say over hours, clients and pay, and fewer rota surprises. If you have at least one year of professional care experience, a clear Enhanced DBS (we can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references, you can apply. We also welcome carers who already work nights and want to fill quieter days, or those who prefer regular overnight bookings around Carnoustie and Angus.
- Minimum requirements: 1 year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS (PrimeCarers can help arrange), the right to work in the UK, and verifiable references.
- Working terms: self-employed — set your own rates, choose clients, hours and service area.
- Support: PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments; insurance is included while you work.
