Description

PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with families in Hatch End who need overnight support so relatives can rest. These ongoing opportunities cover waking or sleeping nights in a client's own home: regular checks, assistance with personal care when needed, medication prompts, repositioning, simple record-keeping and quiet companionship. Many carers who work nights prefer the focus and independence it brings — especially if you already cover Harrow and surrounding areas.

Right now, 181 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Night work here in Hatch End is often one-to-one and done independently, so this role suits confident carers with at least one year of professional experience who value autonomy and direct relationships with families. You set your own approach to care during a night shift, whether that means being alert and hands-on for waking nights or providing a calm, observant presence for sleeping nights.

Pay is set by you — carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed and choose their own rates. Typical ranges for these roles are £17–£19.80 per hour, with more detailed bands shown on profiles such as £18.80–£20.80 per hour for hourly care and £145–£160 per day for live-in day rates. PrimeCarers handles client matching, contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you are working, so you can focus on care rather than admin.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this if you don’t have a current one). Many carers who move from agency work to self-employed nights appreciate choosing their own clients and service area — whether you want to work around Hatch End, cover nearby towns such as Pinner, Harrow Weald, North Harrow, Wealdstone, Stanmore and Rayners Lane, or focus on parts of Harrow.

Working nights with PrimeCarers often means predictable, repeat shifts where families value continuity. You’ll be responsible for keeping clear records, communicating promptly with families and PrimeCarers, and working to the agreed care plan while respecting a client’s privacy and home environment.

Applying takes minutes. Create a profile, upload your references and checks, and once verified your profile typically goes live within days. PrimeCarers will introduce you to suitable families so you can choose the clients and hours that fit your life. If you’re ready to take more control of your night work in Hatch End and nearby areas, this platform is designed to make the switch straightforward and secure.
