Overnight Carer Jobs in Sheriff Hill

Work as an overnight carer in Sheriff Hill, supporting people in their own homes through waking or sleeping nights so families can rest. These roles suit experienced carers who want more control over who they support and when. On PrimeCarers you’re self-employed: you set your own rates and choose clients, hours and service area. Many carers who move from agency work find they keep the rewarding parts of care while reclaiming flexibility and pay control.

Typical pay for overnight shifts falls in the range £17–£17.60 per hour depending on the client’s needs and whether you’re providing waking nights or sleep-in support. You can also see the breakdowns for hour-by-hour and live-in day work using £18.50–£20 per hour and £145–£160 per day when you set your profile. PrimeCarers finds clients, handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work — so you can focus on care, not paperwork.

Overnight care in Sheriff Hill and the wider Tyne and Wear area varies from short-term blocks to ongoing nights. Typical duties include personal care, medication prompts, moving and handling if trained, companionship during the night and clear handovers to daytime teams. You may be asked to carry out light household checks or respond to alarms; each client advert will list the care needs so you can decide if it’s right for you.

This work is well suited to carers who already have at least one year of professional care experience and who prefer consistent night work or a mix of day and night shifts. PrimeCarers requires an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references before a profile is approved. Many carers who join us live and work around Windy Nook, Low Fell, Gateshead, Newcastle upon Tyne, Newcastle and Great Heaton and find local matches quickly.

Applying takes minutes: create a profile, upload checks and references, then wait for verification. Profiles typically go live within days of verification, after which you can bid for or accept nights that suit your diary. You remain self-employed and choose which clients to accept.
