Night Care Assistant Jobs in Clacton on Sea

PrimeCarers connects self-employed carers with families needing overnight support in Clacton on Sea. Overnight care covers waking nights (active support, observations and personal care) and sleeping nights (being on hand through the night while clients rest) in someone’s own home. As a PrimeCarers carer you set your own rates, choose your clients, hours and service area while we handle contracts, invoicing, payments and provide insurance while you work.

New care jobs in the area are posted on PrimeCarers throughout the year.

Overnight roles are ideal for experienced care workers who want more control than traditional agency shifts. You might support someone with dementia, a long-term condition or frailty, helping with personal care, repositioning, medication prompts, night-time checks and calm reassurance. Shifts vary by family — some need regular waking nights; others prefer a sleeping night presence. This is ongoing, self-employed work across Clacton on Sea and nearby communities, including Holland on Sea, Frinton on Sea, Brightlingsea, Walton on the Naze, Wivenhoe and West Mersea.

Pay is set by you — many carers working nights through PrimeCarers charge within the typical range of £17–£17.50 per hour, but you choose what’s right for your experience and the support required. Choosing your hours means you can combine nights with other daytime work, or focus on a steady pattern that suits your life in Essex.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. An Enhanced DBS check is required; PrimeCarers can help arrange this if you don’t already have one. We verify documents and references so families can trust the carers they choose.

PrimeCarers is an introductory platform: we find you clients and manage the admin so you can focus on care. We prepare contracts, manage invoicing and collect payments, and provide insurance cover while you’re working with a client sourced through PrimeCarers. You remain self-employed and free to set your own terms.

Applying takes minutes — create a profile, upload checks and references, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days. You’ll then see opportunities for overnight care in Clacton on Sea and surrounding towns and can select the clients and shifts that fit you.
