Overnight Carer Jobs in Gidea Park

Overnight carer roles in Gidea Park are about helping people stay safe and comfortable through the night so families can sleep. These are ongoing self-employed opportunities supporting people in their own homes on waking or sleeping nights — not one single post or fixed rota.
Right now, 136 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

If you’re an experienced carer considering a move away from agency life, these roles could suit you. Carers on PrimeCarers set their own hours and choose clients, so you can prioritise nights that fit your life. Typical rates are £17–£18.60 per hour, and you decide the exact amount you charge. You’ll work around Gidea Park and the wider Havering area, keeping control of when and where you work.

PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work. That means you focus on care, not paperwork. To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

Overnight care can be waking nights — active support, repositioning, personal care and monitoring — or sleeping nights where you respond only when needed. Many carers prefer nights for concentrated one-to-one work and steadier continuity with clients. You choose whether to cover single nights, regular weekly nights or longer patterns in and around Gidea Park and nearby areas such as Ardleigh Green, Emerson Park, Gallows Corner, Hornchurch, Romford and Harold Wood.

Working this way suits people who want more control: pick the clients you feel comfortable with, set the rate that reflects your skills and experience, and manage your diary. PrimeCarers provides the initial introductions, contracts and secure payment handling so your working relationship with a family is straightforward and professional.
