Night Care Assistant Jobs in Long Eaton

Night-time care in Long Eaton means supporting people in their own homes through waking or sleeping nights so families can rest. You’ll be providing companionship, personal care as needed, medication prompts, pressure area checks, reassurance and practical help during the night, all while working the hours you choose. Right now, 4 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

These roles suit experienced, reliable carers who prefer working nights and want control over who they work for. Many carers who move from agency work choose overnight shifts for the quieter environment, continuity of care and the chance to build trusting relationships with clients and families. You can pick waking nights (active support through the shift) or sleeping nights (available and responsive while the client rests) depending on what suits you and the client.

Pay and flexibility: as a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rates and choose your clients, hours and service area. Typical earnings for this kind of work are £17–£20 per hour.
