Description
If you’re an experienced carer used to agency nights and you’re ready to work for yourself, PrimeCarers connects self-employed night care assistants with families in Colyton and the surrounding area.

Working via PrimeCarers means you stay in control. You are self-employed, set your own rates and choose the clients, hours and service area that suit you. Typical pay sits around £17–£21.20 per hour depending on the level of care and whether you’re doing waking or sleep-in nights. For reference, many assignments fall within £18.80–£25 per hour for hourly night care and £146–£165 per day for live-in day work when offered alongside night shifts.
This type of work suits carers who have practical night-time experience, steady observational skills and the ability to respond calmly if a client needs attention during the night. It’s ideal for people moving away from agency rotas who want predictable nights, more say over their diary and a direct relationship with families across Colyton and nearby towns such as Seaton, Axminster, Lyme Regis, Honiton, Sidmouth and Ottery St Mary.
PrimeCarers handles the parts you don’t want to worry about: we find clients for you, manage contracts, take care of invoicing and payments, and include insurance while you work on an assignment. You remain in control of which jobs you accept and can switch off when you want to. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this). We verify every profile before matches begin so families and carers can trust the connection. Devon families value continuity and trust—your experience matters.
