These ongoing, self‑employed roles suit experienced carers who want more control than an agency offers. You choose the clients you work with, the hours you take and the service area you cover. PrimeCarers looks after contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work, so you can focus on care rather than paperwork. Opportunities are available across Cheam and nearby areas including Worcester Park, Lower Morden, Morden Park, Old Malden, Carshalton and Morden, with some roles also close to Sutton.

Night work often includes:

• Supervising sleep, regular welfare checks and keeping clear notes
• Assisting with personal care and safe repositioning
• Administering or prompting medication where needed
• Providing companionship and reassurance so families can rest

As a self‑employed Night Care Assistant you set your own rates and working pattern. Typical rates for this kind of work fall within £17–£20 per hour though you choose what to charge and which bookings to accept. You can specialise in waking nights, sleeping nights, or offer both depending on what suits your lifestyle and availability.

To join you will need:

• At least 1 year of professional care experience
• An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one)
• The right to work in the UK
• Verifiable references

If you’re used to agency routines but want more flexibility and clearer pay, PrimeCarers removes much of the admin. We handle client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and include insurance while you are working on a booking. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you can be accepting nights in and around Cheam quickly.
