Night Care Assistant Jobs in Dartmouth

Night-time care in Dartmouth is about helping families rest while you provide safe, calm support for someone in their own home. As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you choose waking or sleeping nights, set your own rates and decide which clients, hours and area suit you. Typical rates are shown as £17–£25 per hour and you remain in control of how you work.
Right now, 3 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

What the role looks like: overnight care means supporting someone at night in their own home — reassurance, prompting, personal care when needed, medication checks, or being alert to changes in condition. Some nights are hands-on; others are mostly watching and responding if something happens. You’ll spend nights with clients across Dartmouth and nearby areas, including Brixham, Paignton, Totnes, Sherford, Torquay and Kingsbridge.

This work suits experienced carers who value predictable nights, want better pay for night shifts and prefer the freedom of self-employment. Many carers come to PrimeCarers after agency work because they want to set their own rates, accept the clients they want and build longer-lasting relationships with families in Dartmouth and across Devon.

PrimeCarers handles the admin so you can focus on care: we find clients, manage contracts, handle invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work. You remain self-employed and choose your own working area, hours and clients. 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, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We’ll guide you through verification and support you with profile setup and bookings, but you always stay in control of which shifts you accept.

Practical points to consider before you apply: be prepared to work solo overnight, carry a phone or alarm device, and keep clear records of care provided. You’ll often work with families who prefer someone steady and reliable so clear communication and professional boundaries matter.
