Overnight Carer Jobs in Selby

Provide waking or sleeping night support to people in their own homes across Selby. Overnight care lets families rest while you cover medication checks, personal care, repositioning, companionship and practical night-time support tailored to each person’s needs. You can work single nights, regular weekly shifts or occasional cover depending on what suits you. Right now, 5 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This opportunity is for experienced carers who want the freedom to work differently. On PrimeCarers you are self-employed: you set your own rates, choose which clients to accept and decide your service area and hours. If you’re thinking of moving away from agency patterns in Selby and the surrounding towns, this gives you the control to balance nights with daytime life in North Yorkshire.

Typical pay for overnight care on the platform is £16.50–£18 per hour depending on duties, location and whether the shift is waking or sleeping night. Many carers use the £18.50–£20 per hour range for hourly night support and the £145–£160 per day range for day-rate live-in arrangements when those options are relevant. You set the price and keep what you earn; PrimeCarers simply helps you find clients who match your skills and availability.

PrimeCarers handles the practical side so you can focus on care: we find clients, manage contracts, take care of invoicing and payments, and provide insurance while you are working. 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. Applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification.

Work across Selby and nearby towns such as Snaith, Sherburn in Elmet, Howden, Knottingley, Goole and Tadcaster or pick a tight local patch — the choice is yours. If you prefer regular nights in one household or a mix of short overnight shifts, you control the pattern and how many nights you take on. This is an ongoing stream of self-employed opportunities in and around Selby, not a single position, so you can build a flexible portfolio of work.

If you want nights that fit your life, create a profile to get started. It only takes a few minutes to apply and begin the verification process; once approved you can start accepting night work that suits you and the people you support in Selby and the wider North Yorkshire area.
