Description

Overnight care in Walmley Ash means supporting someone in their own home through waking or sleeping nights so families can rest. You’ll be providing reassurance, companionship, personal care where needed and practical checks so a family knows their loved one is safe. This listing is for ongoing self-employed night care opportunities across Walmley Ash and the wider West Midlands, not one specific role. Right now, 23 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Night work varies. Some families need a waking night assistant who stays alert, helps with medication prompts, repositioning and hands-on care. Others need a sleeping night assistant who is on-site and available if needs arise, with regular checks and clear reporting. Tasks are agreed with each family so you know what’s expected before you accept a booking. You’ll work in the client’s home, supporting independence and helping families get the rest they need.

This kind of work suits experienced carers who value focused night shifts and the freedom of self-employment. If you’re used to agency nights but want more control—choosing which clients, which hours and the area you work in—PrimeCarers lets you do just that. Many carers who live near Walmley Ash find regular nights in surrounding areas such as Walmley, Thimble End, Pype Hayes, Wylde Green, Reddicap Heath and Tyburn. You’ll see opportunities across Walmley Ash and the neighbouring parts of the West Midlands.

Pay and flexibility are yours to set: carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates, with typical ranges shown on the platform as £17–£18 per hour. You choose your clients, hours and service area, and PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you work. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

To join you’ll need at least one 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 verify documents and references so families can book with confidence. Because these are ongoing self-employed opportunities, you won’t be tied to shifts that don’t suit you—accept only the nights that fit your life in Walmley Ash.
