Description

Looking for reliable, ongoing night work you can fit around life in Beddington? PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers with families who need overnight support in their own homes. Roles are for waking or sleeping nights where you provide companionship, personal care, reassurance and hands-on support so families can rest easy. You decide which clients to take, the hours you work and the area you cover.

Work typically sits within £17–£19.89 per hour depending on the family’s needs, whether it’s short shifts, full nights or regular weekly bookings. For clarity, the platform also supports typical ranges for care-only hours and live-in day rates: £19–£21 per hour and £148–£164 per day. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you’re on a booked shift — so you can focus on care.

Right now, 142 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This type of night care suits experienced carers who prefer the autonomy of self-employed work: you’ll be expected to manage the client’s needs through the night, keep accurate notes, and liaise with families and any healthcare professionals involved. Many carers come from agency backgrounds in Beddington and nearby areas and stay because they value choosing the clients and hours that suit them.

We work with carers covering Beddington and neighbouring communities including Waddon, Wallington, South Croydon, Carshalton, Purley and Thornton Heath. Carers also take bookings across Sutton when they choose to widen their service area.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one) and verifiable references. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, and the application only takes minutes to complete.

PrimeCarers is for carers who want control: set your own rate, accept the nights that suit you, and manage how much or how little you work. We do the admin — client matching, contracts, invoicing and secure payments — and include insurance for the periods you’re booked. You are self-employed, so you invoice for your time and comply with your own tax and NI obligations.

If you’re an experienced night carer in Beddington ready for more control over your work, create a profile to get started. Many carers see bookings appear quickly and families contact them directly once verified.
