Description

Night-time care in Monken Hadley means helping families rest while supporting someone in their own home. These ongoing roles cover waking nights or sleeping nights, offering reassurance, personal care and companionship through the small hours. You’ll work directly with a family, usually in Monken Hadley or nearby neighbourhoods, allowing relatives to sleep safely while you provide the overnight support that keeps a household running.

Right now, 192 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Typical night work might include regular checks, help with continence, prompting medication, or being on hand if a client needs assistance during the night. Some clients need a waking nights assistant who stays alert; others want a sleeping nights carer who rests at home and responds if required. You choose the shifts you accept and the type of night support that suits your skills and lifestyle.

Pay and flexibility are what attract many carers away from agency rota work. On PrimeCarers you set your own rates and decide which families you accept. Typical rates for night work are £17–£19 per hour, with hourly and live-in day ranges visible on your profile: £18.80–£20 per hour and £145–£160 per day. You remain self-employed, so you control your hours, service area and which clients you work with.

To join we ask for 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 verify these quickly so your profile can go live within days. Applying takes minutes and the platform guides you step by step.

PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and includes insurance cover while you work. That means you can focus on the night support you provide, not paperwork. If you’re used to agency life in Enfield or want more control over who you work for in Monken Hadley, this is a practical alternative.
