Description
Overnight care in Merseybank means supporting people in their own homes through waking nights or sleeping nights so families can rest with confidence. You’ll work directly with families as a self-employed carer, choosing the clients, hours and service area that fit your life. Right now, 22 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Typical overnight work includes personal care, medication prompts, repositioning, monitoring and companionship — staying awake for waking nights or being present during sleeping nights as agreed with the family. These roles suit experienced carers who prefer predictable night work, value continuity with one or a few people, and want to avoid rota-driven agency life in Merseybank and across Manchester.
Pay and flexibility are in your hands. Carers on PrimeCarers set their own rates and choose their shifts; many set rates within £17–£18 per hour depending on experience and duties. PrimeCarers matches you with local families, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you’re working.
To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), and verifiable references. We’re not advertising a single role here — these are ongoing, self-employed opportunities across Merseybank and neighbouring areas.
PrimeCarers makes the practical side straightforward: create a profile, share your experience and availability, and we introduce you to families whose needs suit your skills and hours. Applying takes minutes; profiles typically go live within days of verification.
