Night Care Assistant Jobs in Ickenham

Night care assistants provide waking or sleeping nights supporting a client in their own home so families can rest. In Ickenham you could be helping people with mobility needs, dementia, post‑op recovery or complex personal care through the night — all as a self‑employed carer choosing the work that suits you. PrimeCarers supports carers across Hillingdon and neighbouring areas, helping you connect directly with families in and around Ickenham.

Right now, 123 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This is ongoing, self‑employed work rather than a single role. Typical overnight shifts vary — some clients need hands‑on support through waking nights, others need a sleeping‑night presence with check‑ins. You set your own availability, service area and rates (many carers list within £17–£20 per hour). PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work, so you can focus on care rather than administration.

Who this suits:

• Experienced carers with at least one year of professional care experience who want more control than agency work.
• Carers who prefer nights — if you’re comfortable with waking or sleeping‑night routines, medication checks, or supporting someone with night‑time needs, these roles are a natural fit.
• People who want flexibility — choose the clients, hours and service area that work for you, including around Ickenham, Ruislip, Uxbridge and beyond: Ruislip, Uxbridge, South Ruislip, Eastcote, Northolt and Rayners Lane.

Minimum requirements to join PrimeCarers:

• At least 1 year of professional care experience.
• An Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one if you need it).
• The right to work in the UK.
• Verifiable references.

How it works in practice: applying takes minutes and your profile typically goes live within days of verification. Once listed you choose which enquiries to accept — PrimeCarers manages introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments so your nights are focused on care. Insurance while you work is included, and you remain fully self‑employed, free to set the hours and clients that suit your life.

If you’re based in Ickenham or elsewhere in Hillingdon and want to move away from rigid rota work, this is a straightforward way to take control of your nights while keeping the support of a platform that handles the paperwork. Profiles go live quickly, and we’ll help at every step of verification so you can start seeing suitable client requests soon.
