Description

Work as an overnight carer in Easingwold supporting people in their own homes so families can rest easy. These ongoing self‑employed opportunities cover waking and sleeping nights — you choose which shifts to accept, which clients to work for and the area you cover across Easingwold and nearby towns. Right now, 7 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Overnight care often means long, quiet hours where practical experience, calm judgement and respectful companionship matter most. You might help with personal care, medication prompts, repositioning, monitoring and keeping someone comfortable and safe through the night. Shifts vary: some nights are mostly observational, others need more active hands‑on support. Pay is set by you and typically sits around £17–£20 per hour for overnight work.

This type of role suits experienced carers who want more control than agency rosters usually allow. If you're used to night work and value continuity of care, working directly with families can be rewarding: you build trust, reduce travel between clients and often work with the same person or household regularly. Many carers choose to cover areas around Easingwold and Thornton Hill, Boroughbridge, Haxby, Thirsk, Helmsley and Ripon so travel fits their lifestyle.

PrimeCarers matches you with clients and removes admin friction: we handle contracts, invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you work. You remain self‑employed, set your own hours and set your own rates. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

  • Minimum requirements: at least 1 year of professional care experience.
  • Checks and rights: an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one) and the right to work in the UK are required.
  • References: verifiable references from recent roles are needed.

If you currently work for an agency and are fed up with fixed rotas or limited pay control, moving to self‑employed overnight work through PrimeCarers can give you flexibility while keeping essential support in place (contracts, invoicing and insurance). You remain in charge of which clients and nights you accept.

How to apply: create a profile, list your experience and availability and submit your documents. PrimeCarers verifies your details, helps arrange DBS if needed, and your profile usually goes live within days — then families can contact you directly.

If you live in or around Easingwold, North Yorkshire and want to take more control of your night work, this could be the move that gives you better balance and clearer pay for the hours you choose to cover.
