Night Care Assistant Jobs in Aberdeen

Night care assistants based in Aberdeen provide waking or sleeping night support to adults in their own homes so families can rest. These shifts range from active, hands-on waking nights to low-intervention sleeping nights where you monitor and respond if needed. Roles are self-employed, you choose the clients, hours and area you cover — often around Aberdeen and across Aberdeenshire including nearby towns such as Portlethen, Westhill, Kintore, Red Cloak, Stonehaven and Inverurie.

This is an ongoing opportunity platform rather than a single role. Many carers use PrimeCarers to move away from agency rotas while keeping flexibility and independence. You set your own rates and availability; typical £17–£20 per hour can be used as a guide, with more specific ranges shown for overnight work such as £18.80–£20 per hour for night shifts and £142.50–£160 per day for live-in day rates where applicable. PrimeCarers finds families, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance cover while you work, so you can focus on care.

Night work suits experienced carers who are comfortable with quiet observation, moving between low-key check-ins and swift, confident action if a client needs support. You may be helping with medication prompts, repositioning, personal care, continence support or providing companionship during long nights. Good judgement, a calm manner and at least one year of professional care experience are essential.

To join you must have the right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check; PrimeCarers can help arrange a DBS if you don’t already have one. You’ll remain self-employed, free to accept or decline bookings, set your hours and manage your local service area across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire.

Applying takes minutes: create a profile, provide references and right-to-work documents, and complete basic verification. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, and once live you can start selecting nights that suit your life and commitments. PrimeCarers handles payments and paperwork, leaving you to deliver safe, respectful night-time care.
