Description

Support families in their own homes across Clerkenwell and nearby neighbourhoods by providing overnight care – waking nights or sleeping nights where you stay and check in so relatives can rest. This is ongoing self-employed work connecting you directly with families who need reliable night support. Right now, 156 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Night care in Clerkenwell often means companionship, personal care at night, medication prompts, repositioning, monitoring and clear handovers for families in the morning. Shifts vary: some clients need hands-on waking nights, others need a calm sleeping night with periodic checks. You decide which types of nights you’ll accept and which streets in Clerkenwell and Islington you’ll cover, including nearby areas such as Pentonville, Farringdon, Angel, St Lukes, Holborn and Barbican.

Pay is set by you — carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and set their own rates. Typical work for this role sits in the range £17–£20 per hour depending on duties and travel. You’ll agree your own hours and keep the care you prefer, whether shorter blocks or full overnight stays. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance cover while you’re working.

This way of working suits experienced carers ready to leave agency rotas: if you value control over your diary, clearer pay and direct client choice, you’ll feel at home here. To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We don’t list single shifts — we advertise ongoing self-employed opportunities you can build into a sustainable night-care offering across Clerkenwell and the wider Islington area.

Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, add your experience and references, and when your checks are verified your profile typically goes live within days. Once live, PrimeCarers introduces you to families; you choose which introductions to accept and you set the hours and service area that suit you. If you’re ready to work night care on your terms in Clerkenwell, this is a practical route to keep doing the work you love while staying in charge.
