Description
Work night shifts in clients' homes across Hendon, supporting people through waking or sleeping nights so families can rest. You’ll provide companionship, personal care or prompt assistance at night depending on the household need. Roles are self‑employed and ideal for experienced carers who want to move away from agency routines and take control of their nights. Right now, 240 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Night care in Hendon often involves sitting-in support, regular checks, medication prompting, repositioning or being available to respond if a client needs help. Some assignments are waking nights where you’re actively supporting; others are sleeping nights where you stay on-site and respond when needed. You choose the kind of nights you want to do and the clients you accept.
This work suits registered carers with practical experience who value flexibility. If you’re used to agency work but want to set your own terms, PrimeCarers lets you choose clients, hours and your service area across Hendon and nearby neighbourhoods including West Hendon, Brent Cross, The Hyde, Colindale, Grahame Park and Temple Fortune.

Pay and flexibility: carers on PrimeCarers are self‑employed and set their own rates. Typical rates for night roles are £17–£19 per hour.
