Description
Overnight care in Stockfield means supporting people through waking or sleeping nights in their own homes so families can rest. You might be assisting with medication checks, personal care, turning and repositioning, companionship during a wakeful night or being on call while someone sleeps. Many carers who join us cover Stockfield and nearby areas across Northumberland, providing continuity of care and peace of mind to families.
Right now, 4 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
This work suits experienced carers who want more control than traditional agency routes. On PrimeCarers you work as a self-employed care professional: you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and service area, and keep the freedom to accept only the nights that suit you. We connect carers with families around Stockfield and Prudhoe, Corbridge, Ryton, Consett, Blaydon on tyne and Hexham so you can build reliable, ongoing nights where they fit your life.
Typical pay varies because carers set their own rates, but many charge within £17–£18 per hour depending on the client’s needs and whether nights are waking or sleeping. For reference, typical hourly care rates usually sit around £18.50–£20 per hour, and live-in day rates commonly fall in £145–£160 per day. You remain in control of how you price your work while PrimeCarers makes introductions and handles the paperwork.
