Description
Work nights in Eastside supporting adults who need waking or sleeping-night care in their own homes. Many families want someone they can rely on so they can rest; you’ll provide practical care, reassurance, medication checks, or personal care through the night, according to each client’s needs and support plan. You’ll be choosing waking or sleeping nights, and arranging times that suit you and the family.
Right now, 165 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
These roles suit experienced carers who prefer the freedom of self-employment and more control than agency rosters allow. On PrimeCarers you set your own rates and choose the clients, hours and service area that work for you. Typical roles for night care pay in the region of £17–£20 per hour depending on duties and whether shifts are waking or sleeping. Many carers use the flexibility to combine nights in Eastside with daytime work elsewhere in Hackney or nearby towns like Shoreditch, Hoxton, Custom House, Spitalfields, Haggerston and De Beauvoir Town.
Night work can include:
- Remaining awake and supporting a sleeping client with personal care, checks and medication when needed (waking nights).
- Sleeping in at the property while being available for emergencies and planned checks (sleeping nights).
- Providing companionship, reassurance and monitoring during the hours families need rest.
PrimeCarers supports self-employed carers by finding clients and handling contracts, invoicing and payments — plus insurance is included while you work through the platform. You can set your own rate within the local market, and many carers reference typical ranges like £19–£21.30 per hour for hourly night care or £148–£165 per day for live-in day work when deciding their fee. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
To join you need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We do not advertise a single post here; this page connects experienced night carers in Eastside with ongoing self-employed opportunities across Hackney and nearby neighbourhoods.

Set up takes minutes, we verify your documents, and then you can review matches and accept the nights that suit you. Many carers find that working nights through PrimeCarers gives them steady work with clearer paperwork and better control over their income and life balance.
