Description
Provide waking or sleeping nights in Saltley, helping a client remain safe and comfortable in their own home while families get the rest they need. Overnight care can involve reassurance, personal care, medication prompts, moving and repositioning, light documentation and being a calm presence until morning. Many opportunities are close to home in Saltley and across the West Midlands. Right now, 26 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers with families looking for trusted, experienced night support. You set your own hours, choose which clients to accept and set the area you’ll work in — whether you want to cover central Saltley or travel a little to nearby communities such as Alum Rock, Nechells, Ashted, Ward End, Bordesley Green and Washwood Heath. You are in control of the work you do and the nights you take.
Pay and flexibility: Carers on PrimeCarers set their own rates and most night care sits in the range £17–£18 per hour depending on the support required and whether it’s a waking or sleeping night. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work. We do not promise any particular number of nights; you choose what to accept.
Who this suits: This role is for steady, experienced carers who can work independently overnight and who value flexibility. It’s a good fit if you’re currently agency-based but want more control over rates, clients and hours, or if you already work privately and want more regular referrals in Saltley and the West Midlands.
Requirements to join PrimeCarers:
- At least 1 year of professional care experience
- An Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this)
- The right to work in the UK
- Verifiable references
How to apply: It takes minutes to create a profile. Once you submit your details and references, our verification team typically activates profiles within days.
