Description

Overnight care in North Hykeham means supporting people in their own homes through waking or sleeping nights so families can rest. These roles suit experienced carers who want to work nights, provide companionship, help with medication checks, repositioning, or respond to calls without the restrictions of agency rotas. Right now, 4 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This is ongoing, self-employed work across North Hykeham and nearby areas such as Bracebridge, Lincoln, Dunston, Newark on Trent, Wragby and Sleaford. You choose which clients you accept, the hours you work and the service area you cover. Many carers moving on from agency life value the control: set your own approach, arrange the care you’re confident delivering and manage your diary around other commitments in Lincolnshire.

Pay is set by you; typical rates for overnight care sit around £17–£19.50 per hour depending on tasks and experience. You can list hourly or live-in availability and make it clear whether you’re offering waking nights, sleeping nights or both. PrimeCarers makes introductions — we handle contracts, invoicing and payments so you can focus on care, and insurance is included while you work.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, verifiable references and an Enhanced DBS check. If you don’t have a DBS, PrimeCarers can help arrange one during onboarding. We don’t promise specific shifts; instead we connect you with families seeking reliable overnight support across North Hykeham and the surrounding Lincolnshire area.

Applying takes minutes. Create a short profile, upload your ID and references, and complete verification — profiles typically go live within days of verification. Once live, you’ll be able to review client details and accept the nights that suit you. If you prefer the predictability of regular nights or the flexibility to pick ad hoc bookings, both are common on the platform.
