Night Care Assistant Jobs in Moston

Work overnight in Moston supporting people in their own homes — either waking nights, responding to needs through the night, or sleeping nights with on-call responsibilities so families can rest. These ongoing, self-employed opportunities suit experienced carers who want to keep the clinical and personal side of care, but take control of when and where they work. Right now, 23 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Night work varies: some shifts are hands-on personal care and medication checks, others are companionship, pressure care checks, or being present and responsive through the hours of darkness. You’ll meet clients in Moston and the surrounding neighbourhoods; many carers also cover New Moston, Failsworth, Newton Heath, Harpurhey, Blackley and Miles Platting and other nearby parts of Manchester. You decide which clients to accept and which nights to work.

Pay is set by you — many night carers on the platform work within £17–£18 per hour depending on the role, location and responsibilities. Typical hourly and live-in ranges are £18.50–£20 per hour and £145–£160 per day respectively, but you choose your rates and which shifts to take.

This route suits experienced care professionals who want more flexibility than traditional agencies. You must have at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one if needed). PrimeCarers supports self-employed carers by finding clients, handling contracts, invoicing and payments, and providing insurance cover while you work.

How to get started: creating a profile takes minutes and you set your service area, availability and the kinds of overnight work you prefer. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, so you can start choosing nights quickly. We do not advertise one single role here — this page promotes ongoing opportunities for self-employed night carers across Moston and nearby areas.

If you’re used to agency life but want more control over rates, hours and who you support, joining PrimeCarers may be the next step. You’ll still be able to offer compassionate night-time support and keep relationships with families, while PrimeCarers takes care of the paperwork and payments so you can focus on care.
