Night Care Assistant Jobs in Knaresborough

Overnight care in Knaresborough means helping people sleep safely at home — either as a waking night when you provide active support, or a sleeping night with regular checks so families can rest. You’ll be supporting people in their own homes across Knaresborough and the surrounding parts of North Yorkshire, working either short or long runs depending on the client’s needs. Right now, 7 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This work suits experienced carers who want to move away from rota-driven agency life and take back control. Night support can include personal care, medication prompts, reassurance, moving and handling within risk assessments, and accurate handover notes. If you prefer quiet, focused shifts and the chance to build steady client relationships in Knaresborough, night care could be the right fit.

As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rates and choose the clients, hours and service area that suit you. Typical rates for these roles are £17–£18 per hour and many carers list hourly or live‑in options like £18.80–£20 per hour or £144–£160 per day on their profile. You’re free to accept only the nights and locations that work for your life.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. We ask for these checks because families deserve safe, reliable night support and carers deserve clarity from the start.

PrimeCarers finds clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments for you, and insurance is included while you work. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you can be visible to families around Knaresborough and nearby towns such as Harrogate, Boroughbridge, Wetherby, Ripon, Norwood and Otley quickly. We support carers across North Yorkshire who want regular, self‑directed night work without the admin burden.

These are ongoing self‑employed opportunities rather than a single role. If you’re ready to take control of your night work, set your own rates and build quieter, more predictable shifts in Knaresborough, apply now — it only takes a few minutes to start your profile and you could be available to families within days.
