Night Care Assistant Jobs in Edlington

Overnight care in Edlington means supporting people in their own homes through waking or sleeping nights so families can rest. These are ongoing self-employed opportunities for experienced carers who want control over the hours they do and the people they support. You’ll work directly with families, choosing clients, shifts and your service area while PrimeCarers handles bookings, contracts, invoicing and payments.

Right now, 17 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Typical night work includes checking on a client, supporting personal care needs, prompting medication where required and being on hand in case of change in condition. Many shifts are quiet and observational; others may be more hands-on. We do not advertise a single role here — instead this page connects self-employed night carers across Edlington and the surrounding area to families who need reliable overnight support.

This is a good fit if you have at least one year’s professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You must be self-employed to join PrimeCarers: you set your own rates, choose your clients and decide which hours you’ll accept. Many carers who move from agency work value the flexibility and control that brings.

Pay is set by you. Typical rates for night care are £17–£18 per hour, and you can set the figure that reflects your experience and the level of support you provide. PrimeCarers handles contracts, invoicing and payments on your behalf, and provides insurance cover while you are working through the platform. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

Hours can suit those who want regular night work or occasional shifts to fit around daytime commitments. You can sign up to cover Edlington only, or extend into nearby towns like Conisbrough, Mexborough, Maltby, Doncaster, Tickhill and Wath upon Dearne depending on what you choose to accept. We welcome carers who prefer waking nights and those comfortable with sleeping-in cover; families will specify their needs and you decide which bookings to take.

How to apply: create a profile, upload your references and evidence of experience, and arrange or confirm your Enhanced DBS. PrimeCarers will verify your details and then you can start receiving matches. There’s no single job here — just an ongoing stream of self-employed overnight opportunities across Edlington and South Yorkshire for experienced, reliable carers who want more control.
