Description
Overnight care in Kingston Vale means waking or sleeping nights supporting a client in their own home so families can rest. You’ll work directly with families in Kingston Vale and the surrounding area, delivering personal care, companionship and monitoring through the night in a way that suits the person and their family in Richmond upon Thames and beyond. Right now, 236 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
These are ongoing self-employed opportunities rather than a single post. On PrimeCarers you set your own hours, choose your clients and decide how far you’ll travel. Typical roles in Kingston Vale range from £17–£20 per hour and many carers use the flexibility to balance regular nights with daytime commitments.
If you’re thinking of moving away from agency routines, this could suit you: you keep the practical freedom of self-employment while PrimeCarers finds families, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance while you work. You’re in control of your service area — Kingston Vale, nearby neighbourhoods and Roehampton, Norbiton, Wimbledon, Motspur Park, Raynes Park and Petersham are all common options for carers registered on the platform.
Who we’re looking for
- At least 1 year of professional care experience.
- An Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this if you need one).
- The right to work in the UK and verifiable references.
Typical night duties vary by client but often include providing personal care, giving medication prompts, regular wellbeing checks, repositioning or pressure-relief support, and being a calm, reassuring presence so families can sleep. You will always choose the clients and night patterns you accept — waking nights, sleeping nights or a mix — and agree expectations with the family before you start.
How the admin side works: PrimeCarers introduces you to families, handles the legal paperwork, issues contracts, manages invoicing and processes payments — and provides insurance cover for the time you’re working through the platform. As a self-employed carer you remain responsible for your own tax and national insurance obligations.
Applying takes minutes and a profile can typically go live within days of verification. If you live in or around Kingston Vale and want reliable, ongoing night work that fits your life, create a profile and start seeing client matches quickly.
