Description

Overnight care in Witton means supporting someone in their own home through the night — either waking nights when active care is needed, or sleeping nights with regular checks so families can rest. These shifts suit experienced carers who value continuity of care and want to work more flexibly, often alongside daytime commitments or other clients. PrimeCarers connects you directly with local families and helps with the admin so you can focus on caring.

Right now, 30 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This work is based in Witton and the surrounding area, including Stockland Green, Perry Barr, Gravelly Hill, Perry Common, Handsworth Wood and Birchfield. Roles vary: some clients need regular check-ins, medication prompts or help with moving, while others need a quieter presence all night. You choose the clients and the hours that suit you — and because carers on PrimeCarers are self‑employed you set your own rate and working area. Typical rates fall in the range £17–£18 per hour.

Who this is for: if you have at least one year’s professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references, you’re ready to apply. Many carers joining us have left agency rotas because they wanted clearer hours, fairer pay and the ability to build longer-term relationships with families. If you already know nights are where you do your best work, Witton has consistent demand and a variety of clients across the West Midlands.

What PrimeCarers does for you: we find families who want self‑employed carers, handle contracts, invoices and payments, and include insurance while you work. That means less time on paperwork and more time doing the job you know. You remain independent: choose which bookings to accept, set your terms and block out times you’re unavailable.

Pay and patterns: some carers take single overnight shifts, others build a roster of regular nights with one or two households. You decide whether to offer waking nights or sleeping nights; you set your rate within your profile and families contact you to discuss details. Examples you might see on profiles include hourly lets and longer-running night support; typical hourly and live‑in ranges are shown on the platform.

How to apply: the sign-up takes minutes, the verification is straightforward and profiles typically go live within days. Once live you can begin hearing from families in Witton and nearby towns. If you’re an experienced overnight carer wanting more control, apply today and take the next step in how you work in the West Midlands.
