Overnight Carer Jobs in Lanark

Overnight care in Lanark means supporting someone in their own home through the night so their family can rest. On PrimeCarers you’ll be matched with local families looking for waking nights, sleep-in support or a mix — the focus is compassionate, reliable cover rather than a one-off shift. Right now, 6 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Work typically involves companionship, personal care, medication prompts, monitoring and responding to needs during the night. Many clients prefer carers who can combine calm reassurance with practical care skills; others need light-assistance sleep-ins where you remain available. Roles are based in and around Lanark and across South Lanarkshire, with requests often coming from nearby towns such as Carluke, Biggar, Motherwell, Hamilton, Stoneyburn and Bellshill.

This route suits experienced carers who want to leave agency rota constraints but keep doing the work they love. As a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own hours, choose which clients to accept and decide how far you’ll travel. Typical rates for overnight work are £17–£19.80 per hour and you can list your preferred hours and service area on your profile.

PrimeCarers handles the admin so you can focus on care. We find clients, manage contracts, handle invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you’re working. That means fewer calls, clearer terms with families and time back in your week for what matters.

To join you need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this) and verifiable references. We don’t ask for qualifications you don’t already have — we value the hands-on experience you bring. Many carers who switch to PrimeCarers keep the flexibility of self-employment while finding steadier, ongoing night work across Lanarkshire.

Setting up your profile takes minutes and, once verified, profiles typically go live within days. You remain in control: choose the clients you want, accept or decline bookings, and set your own rates and availability. If you’re used to agency night shifts but prefer predictability and direct working relationships with families, PrimeCarers can help you make the change on your terms.
