Description

Do you already work nights and want more control over who you care for? PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed night carers with families in Faringdon and surrounding areas. You can offer waking or sleeping nights supporting a client in their own home so families can rest. Right now, 7 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Night work with PrimeCarers suits experienced carers who value independence. You decide whether to accept waking nights (active support), sleeping nights (on-call), or a mix. You set your own rates and availability, so you can prioritise nights that fit your life while keeping daytime commitments. Typical pay sits around £17–£20 per hour, and many carers mix hourly night shifts with shorter day calls where needed.

We help you run a simple self-employed care service without the paperwork. PrimeCarers finds families, prepares contracts, handles invoicing and payments, and provides insurance cover for the time you work. That means you can focus on care, not admin.

Many carers on our platform live in and around Faringdon and cover neighbouring towns such as Bampton, Lechlade, Highworth, Carterton, Wantage and Fairford. You choose the service area you want to work in and which clients to accept. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, and applying takes only minutes.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the legal right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check. If you don’t already have an up-to-date DBS, PrimeCarers can help arrange one. We’re looking for reliable, compassionate people who can work independently overnight and communicate clearly with families and the PrimeCarers team.

Working nights with PrimeCarers often suits carers tired of agency rota pressure who want clearer pay, predictable paperwork and more say over their hours. You remain self-employed: set your own hourly rate, choose your clients, and accept the nights that work for you. There are opportunities across Faringdon and other parts of Oxfordshire, with options for occasional nights or regular overnight rounds.

Ready to take control of your night work? The application is quick. Create your profile, submit the required checks and references, and once verified your profile usually appears within days. If you have questions about night duties, charging for sleeping nights, or practicalities in Faringdon, get in touch and we’ll guide you through the next steps.
