Description
Looking for overnight care work in Lamorbey that gives you control, clear hours and respect for your skills? On PrimeCarers you offer waking or sleeping nights supporting someone in their own home so families can rest — you remain self-employed, set your own rates and choose the clients and hours that suit you.
Right now, 181 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
We connect experienced carers with families across Lamorbey and surrounding areas. You’ll be matching directly with households so you know the care expected before you accept any bookings. Most night roles involve companionship, personal care, medication prompts and responding to needs during the night. Some shifts are quiet sleeping nights; others are waking nights requiring hands-on support — you pick what you’re comfortable with.
Pay and practicalities: as a self-employed carer you set your own fee and can list a rate within £18.80–£20 per hour for hourly work or £145–£160 per day for live-in days; typical nights on PrimeCarers fall in £17–£19 per hour depending on needs and experience. PrimeCarers helps by finding clients, handling contracts, invoicing and payments — and insurance is included while you’re working through the platform.
Who this suits: carers with at least one year of professional care experience who want to move away from rota-driven agency life and take more control of their diary. If you’re based in Lamorbey, or travel from Sidcup, Albany Park, Old Bexley, Blackfen, Longlands and Blendon, you can set a service area that fits your travel plans. Becoming a PrimeCarers carer is ideal if you value predictable nights, straight communication with families and keeping more of what you earn.
Requirements to join are simple and transparent: at least 1 year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You remain self-employed and responsible for your tax and NI; PrimeCarers provides documentation to help with invoicing and record-keeping.
How to apply: creating a profile takes minutes and you can explain the type of night shifts you prefer. Profiles typically go live within days of verification. Once live you’ll receive introductions to families near Lamorbey and elsewhere in Bexley. There’s no coercion to accept work — you choose every booking.
If you’re ready to take more control of your nights and care for people in the comfort of their homes in Lamorbey, join PrimeCarers and start matching with local families. Applying is quick, honest and aimed at experienced carers who want to work on their terms.
