Night Care Assistant Jobs in Sheerness

Looking for overnight care work around Sheerness that fits your life? PrimeCarers connects experienced, self-employed carers with local families who need waking or sleeping nights in their own homes. You’ll support people through the night so families can rest, whether that means regular check-ins, personal care, or being on hand for reassurance and safety. Right now, 18 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Night care in Sheerness suits carers who value flexibility and respect. Many people choose this work because it can be quieter, deeply rewarding and fits around daytime commitments. You decide whether you offer waking nights, sleeping nights or a mix. You set your own availability, choose which clients you’ll work with and define the area you cover around Sheerness and across Kent. Families we match you with live across Sheerness and nearby towns such as Queenborough, Thorpe Bay, Shoeburyness, Southchurch, Sittingbourne and North Shoebury.

Pay and practicals: as a self-employed carer on PrimeCarers you set your own rates and can expect roles in the range £17–£19.10 per hour depending on the work and your experience. Typical hourly and live-in ranges are shown on the platform: £18.80–£20 per hour and £145–£160 per day. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you are working.

Who this is for: you should have at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You will also need an Enhanced DBS check — if you don’t have one yet, PrimeCarers can help arrange it. We’re looking for reliable, compassionate people who can work independently overnight and communicate clearly with families and the PrimeCarers team.

What you can expect day-to-day: you may be doing personal care, medication prompts, repositioning, or providing companionship and observation through the night. Each family is different; you always decide which roles you take. Shifts are arranged between you and the family via PrimeCarers, so you keep control of hours, clients and locations.

Ready to join? Applying takes minutes and your profile typically goes live within days of verification. Create a profile, upload your DBS and references, and start seeing matches. Many carers who moved from agency work tell us they value the clarity of contracts and the flexibility to build their own working pattern across Sheerness and the surrounding Kent coast.
