Overnight Carer Jobs in Putney

Overnight shifts typically involve supporting one person through the night: checking on wellbeing, assisting with medication or personal care when needed, and being a calm, reliable presence. Some nights are waking duties requiring active support; others are sleeping nights with duty of care and regular checks. You will always agree expectations with the family and record care as required.

This work suits skilled carers who prefer continuity and quiet responsibility over shift-based agency rotas. If you value dignity, steadiness and building trust, overnight care in Putney offers meaningful, person-centred work that often leads to long-term matches. Many carers who move from agency life appreciate choosing the clients and nights that fit their lives.

Pay and flexibility are in your control. Carers on PrimeCarers are self-employed: you set your own rates and choose clients, hours and service area. Typical rates for these roles are £17–£19.20 per hour and you can set whatever rate works for you within that range. You can also discuss hourly and live-in day rates where appropriate: £18.80–£20.10 per hour; £145–£160 per day.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and we include insurance while you work. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

We regularly place carers across Putney and nearby areas including Southfields, Parsons Green, Fulham, Roehampton, Barnes and Sands End. You remain in control: accept only the clients and night patterns you want, and update your availability at any time.
