Night Care Assistant Jobs in Deptford

Night care in Deptford means supporting someone through waking or sleeping nights in their own home so families can rest. You might be helping with medication prompts, repositioning, short personal care or simply being a reassuring presence — everything agreed with the family and the client. Right now, 230 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

PrimeCarers is an introductory platform connecting self‑employed carers with families across Deptford and the surrounding area. Typical pay on the platform sits around £17–£18.80 per hour; night shifts often fall within £18.80–£20 per hour for hourly care and £145–£160 per day for live‑in days. You set your own hourly rate as a self‑employed carer, choose which clients to accept and pick the hours and service area that suit you. You can cover Deptford and nearby areas such as New Cross, New Cross Gate, Surrey Quays, Isle of Dogs, Millwall and Maze Hill; we also see work in Greenwich on occasion.

This page advertises ongoing self‑employed opportunities rather than one specific role. PrimeCarers finds families who need overnight care, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work. That means less admin for you and more time focused on care.

Who this suits: experienced night carers who want control over when and where they work. If you’re used to agency rotas but want greater predictability, clearer pay and the freedom to accept only the clients you want, PrimeCarers could be a good fit. You’ll still be providing professional, person‑centred care during waking or sleeping nights — the responsibilities vary by client and are agreed in advance.

What we need from you

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

Applying takes minutes. You create a profile, upload your checks and references, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days — then PrimeCarers introduces you to families looking for overnight support in Deptford and nearby areas. We don’t promise specific shifts or incomes; we introduce you to clients and support the paperwork so you can focus on care.
