Description

Overnight care in Highgate means supporting people in their own homes through waking or sleeping nights so families can rest. You might be providing companionship, checking on medication, assisting with personal care, or being on hand for reassurance and mobility support. These roles suit experienced carers who prefer quieter, consistent night work and value the continuity of supporting the same household over time.

Right now, 221 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

On PrimeCarers you work as a self‑employed carer: you set your own rates, choose the clients you want to work with, and decide the hours and service area that suit you. Typical pay for overnight care falls in £17–£19.10 per hour; many carers quote within £18.80–£20 per hour for hourly nights and £145–£160 per day for live‑in day rates when applicable. PrimeCarers finds families for you and takes care of contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance included while you work.

This is an ongoing opportunity to list your services in Highgate and surrounding neighbourhoods — you can cover the parts of Haringey that suit you or extend into nearby areas such as Upper Holloway, Archway, Gospel Oak, Tufnell Park, Fortis Green and Muswell Hill. You remain self‑employed at all times, choosing who to accept and when to work. Many carers join PrimeCarers to move away from agency rotas and reclaim control of their nights and pay.

To join we ask for 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. We’ll verify your documents and references so your profile can go live quickly. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically appear within days of verification, ready for families in Highgate and across Haringey to view.
