Description
PrimeCarers lists ongoing self-employed opportunities for overnight care in North Sheen. These roles involve waking or sleeping nights, supporting a client in their own home so families can rest. You’ll be choosing who you work with and when, while providing the steady, calm presence families rely on overnight.
Right now, 235 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Overnight care can range from general companionship and monitoring to hands-on personal care, medication checks and working alongside family night routines. Nights can be waking (active care and support) or sleeping (on-site with regular checks) depending on the client’s needs. Typical tasks include:
- Regular welfare checks and moving or assisting with transfers where needed
- Administering or prompting medication, logging records
- Supporting mobility and repositioning to prevent pressure sores
- Providing reassurance, companionship and basic household tidying overnight
This work suits experienced carers who want more control than agency shifts allow. If you have at least one year of professional care experience and want to set your own hours, North Sheen offers a steady stream of local opportunities. You choose your clients, hours and service area — whether you prefer nights close to home in North Sheen or a slightly wider radius including East Sheen, Mortlake, Kew, Richmond, Chiswick and Barnes in Richmond upon Thames and beyond.
Pay is set by you: many carers on PrimeCarers charge within a typical range of £17–£19.60 per hour depending on the client and duties. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work — so you can focus on care rather than paperwork.
To join, you’ll need:
- At least 1 year of professional care experience
