Description

Are you an experienced carer in St Helier who prefers nights? Overnight care on PrimeCarers means supporting someone in their own home through waking or sleeping nights so families can rest. You’ll choose the clients, hours and area you work in, while remaining self-employed and in control of your diary.

New care jobs in the area are posted on PrimeCarers throughout the year.

Typical overnight roles include regular waking nights, sleeping nights with periodic checks, or mixed patterns where you combine nights with daytime calls. These shifts suit skilled, calm carers who can assess situations, manage medication prompts, provide personal care when needed and offer reassuring company through the night. Many carers who move from agency work find they get more predictable nights and better continuity when they pick their own clients in St Helier and nearby towns like Portland, Swanage, Weymouth, Chickerell, Wareham and Salcombe.

Pay and flexibility: carers on PrimeCarers set their own rates, often within £15–£25 per hour depending on experience and the client’s needs. You’ll see the typical hourly-care range and live-in day guidance on each job: £15–£25 per hour and £148–£164 per day. Because you set rates and accept only the shifts you want, it’s easier to balance overnight work with family life or day roles elsewhere.

What PrimeCarers handles for you: we find clients, draft contracts, manage invoicing and payments, and include insurance while you are working. That means less admin and more time doing the care you enjoy. You remain self-employed, keeping control of how you work in St Helier while benefiting from practical back-office support.

Requirements to join are straightforward: 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 — applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days once checks are complete.

Create a profile, confirm your checks and start matching with families who need reliable overnight support.
