Overnight Carer Jobs in Stroud

Overnight care in Stroud means supporting people in their own homes through waking or sleeping nights so families can rest. You’ll be helping with personal care, observation, reassurance, medication prompts and light household tasks when needed, all delivered with respect for each person’s routine. Right now, 8 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This is an ongoing, self-employed opportunity across Stroud and surrounding parts of Gloucestershire for experienced carers who want more control than traditional agency work. Carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates; typical pay sits around £17–£21 per hour depending on the work. You choose which clients to work with, the hours you accept and the area you cover.

Overnight roles vary. Some nights are waking shifts where you’re actively supporting a person through the night. Others are sleeping nights where you remain on-site, ready to respond if needed. Both call for reliability, good observational skills, calm judgement and the ability to build trust quickly. If you have patience, empathy and at least a year of professional care experience, this could suit you.

What PrimeCarers handles:

We find clients and manage contracts, invoicing and payments so you can focus on care. Insurance is included while you are working through the platform, and there’s an administrative safety net without being tied into rosters or restrictive contracts.

Requirements to join: at least 1 year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We ask for references and identity checks as part of verification.

Applying takes minutes and you’ll build a profile that shows your experience, availability and the kind of nights you prefer. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, and then you can start choosing shifts in Stroud, Stonehouse, Painswick, Minchinhampton, Nailsworth, Eastington, Dursley or wherever you want to work in the area like Stonehouse, Painswick, Minchinhampton, Nailsworth, Eastington and Dursley.

If you’re ready to move away from rigid agency rotas but want the support of a platform that handles bookings and payments, PrimeCarers could be a better fit. Create your profile, get verified and start accepting overnight work that suits your life and values.
