Description
Do you already do night work and want more control? PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families in Gipsy Hill who need waking or sleeping nights in their own homes. You set your own rates, choose the clients you’ll work with and pick the hours that suit you — many carers use night roles to balance family life or daytime work while staying local to Lambeth. Right now, 141 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Overnight care can mean different things: supporting someone who needs help with personal care and comfort through the night, staying awake to respond to calls and observations, or sleeping on-site with a lighter duty profile. These ongoing self-employed opportunities are available across Gipsy Hill and nearby areas such as Crystal Palace, Upper Norwood, Upper Sydenham, West Norwood, Sydenham Hill and Sydenham, and they suit experienced carers who want to move away from agency frameworks without losing support.
Pay and flexibility: carers on PrimeCarers set their own fees and you’ll see the typical range for this kind of work reflected on the platform. Typical ranges depend on whether you do hourly nights or live-in arrangements — expect to see details like £18.80–£21 per hour for hourly overnight care and £148–£163.50 per day for live-in day work when you browse roles. Remember you set your own rates, and families contact you directly through PrimeCarers.
Who we need: to join you must have at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. An Enhanced DBS is also required — PrimeCarers can help you arrange one if you need it. We’ll verify references and ID so profiles can be published quickly; applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
How PrimeCarers supports you: we find clients, handle contracts, invoicing and secure payments, and provide insurance while you’re working. That means you can focus on delivering safe, compassionate overnight care in Gipsy Hill without managing all the paperwork. You remain self-employed, choose your service area and accept or decline the client matches you receive.
