About overnight care

What it usually involves

A carer in the home overnight. With a sleep-in, they sleep there and help if needed. With a waking night, they stay awake the whole time.

How a self-employed carer can help

Help with the toilet in the night, reassurance after a bad dream, and someone there if your loved one wanders or falls. For the family, it often means the first proper night's sleep in a long time.

Questions worth asking

Do you offer sleep-ins, waking nights or both?
How do you charge if you're woken several times?
What do you need: a bed, a room, somewhere to make a drink?
Are you happy to be around pets?

Questions families ask

Does the carer need their own room?

For a sleep-in, a bed in a private room is usual. For a waking night, a comfortable chair and somewhere to make a drink.

Can we try one or two nights a week first?

Yes. Many families start that way, so the family carer gets some unbroken sleep.

Is it free for families?

Yes, completely. We never take a cut of what you pay a carer or cleaner.

Why I started Carers & Cleaners

When my mum, Jean, was diagnosed with dementia, I found it surprisingly hard to find good local help. In the end we found a wonderful independent carer, and later a cleaner, by word of mouth. I built Carers & Cleaners so other families don't have to rely on luck.
