Description

Work overnight in people’s own homes around Craven Arms, supporting families who need waking or sleeping nights so they can rest. Overnight care can mean staying awake to assist with personal care and medicines, or being on-site for regular checks and reassurance during a sleeping night — whichever suits you and the person you’re supporting in Craven Arms and the surrounding Shropshire area.

There is 1 family currently looking for care in the wider area.

These are ongoing self‑employed opportunities rather than one-off shifts. You set your own hours, choose the clients you want to work with and define your service area. Many carers who move from agency work value the greater control this gives them — you choose the nights you take and the travel you accept. Typical pay sits around £16–£17 per hour, and you set the exact rate for each client.

PrimeCarers finds clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments for you, with insurance included while you do the work. That means less paperwork and less chasing invoices — you can focus on quality care through the night. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you can start seeing opportunities near Craven Arms quickly.

Overnight roles suit carers who already have practical experience and good observational skills. Waking nights require alertness and familiarity with personal care, mobility support and medication routines; sleeping nights need reliable monitoring and the ability to respond appropriately when required. If you’ve worked in domiciliary care, supported living or similar settings around Craven Arms, you’ll feel at home in these roles.

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 — PrimeCarers can help arrange a DBS if you need one. We’ll guide you through verification so your profile can go live and start attracting local families in places such as Church Stretton, Ludlow, Bishops Castle, Clun, Knighton and Tenbury Wells.

Working through PrimeCarers means you remain self‑employed: you set your own rates and choose clients and hours, while we take care of client introductions, contracts, payments and insurance for the shifts you accept.
