Description

Overnight care in Stalbridge means helping people sleep safely at home or staying awake through the night to provide hands-on support so families can rest. Roles vary from regular waking nights to sleeping-in shifts, supporting mobility, medication prompts, personal care and watching for safety changes. You’ll work in the client’s own home and make a real difference to a family’s peace of mind.

Right now, 4 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

PrimeCarers connects self‑employed carers with local families across Stalbridge and the surrounding area including Sturminster Newton, Sherborne, Wincanton, Blackford, Shaftesbury and Mere. You set your own availability, choose the clients you feel comfortable with and decide the service area you cover in Dorset. Hourly pay is flexible — many carers charge within £17–£18.89 per hour depending on experience and duties.

Typical overnight tasks include:

  • Checking on the client regularly and responding to call alerts;
  • Assisting with toileting, repositioning and safe transfers where needed;
  • Administering or prompting medication when required;
  • Providing reassuring company and monitoring health and wellbeing through the night.

This work suits experienced carers who value steady overnight bookings and want more control than traditional agency arrangements. It’s ideal if you already have at least a year of professional care experience and are used to working unsupervised at night. Many carers who join from agency roles appreciate being able to set their own rates and build longer relationships with families in Stalbridge.

To join PrimeCarers you must have at least one year’s professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
