Description
Overnight care in Coombe means providing waking or sleeping nights supporting a client in their own home so families can rest. You’ll work alone overnight to offer reassurance, help with medication checks, personal care where needed, repositioning, monitoring and companionship — the exact duties depend on each client’s needs. If you prefer night work and feel confident making calm, independent decisions, overnight care can be a rewarding way to use your experience while giving families peace of mind.
Right now, 12 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.On PrimeCarers you work as a self-employed carer: you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and service area. Typical rates are £17–£20 per hour. Many carers use a mix of hourly nights and live-in day shifts; typical ranges are £18.80–£20 per hour for hourly care and £145–£160 per day for live-in days. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work, so you can focus on care rather than admin.
We cover Coombe and the surrounding Hampshire area, with clients often nearby in places such as Petersfield, Waterlooville, Bishops Waltham, Wickham, New Alresford and Havant. These are ongoing self-employed opportunities rather than a single role — you decide which offers to accept and how many nights you take on. Applying takes minutes, and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
Who this suits:
- Experienced carers with at least a year of professional care experience who prefer the night shift rhythm.
- People who want greater control over when and where they work, and who value direct relationships with families.
- Carers ready to take responsibility for their own schedule while keeping professional standards of record-keeping and communication.
To join you’ll need at least one year’s professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We’ll walk you through verification and can advise on presenting night-care experience on your profile.
If you’re used to agency life but want more autonomy — setting rates, choosing clients and keeping the night work you enjoy — PrimeCarers makes the switch straightforward. Create a profile, upload the required documents and set your preferences. Many carers find their first suitable overnight roles in and around Coombe within days.
