Overnight Carer Jobs in Silvertown

Overnight care in Silvertown means supporting someone in their own home through waking or sleeping nights so families can rest. These ongoing, self-employed opportunities suit experienced carers who want to work nights — from light checking and personal care to medication prompting and overnight companionship. Right now, 218 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

Many shifts are local to Silvertown and across Newham, and can stretch into adjacent pockets such as Charlton, North Woolwich, Woolwich, Westcombe Park, Canning Town and Plaistow. You choose the area you cover and the clients you work with, so you can build a night rota that fits your life.

Pay and flexibility are at the heart of this work. Carers on PrimeCarers set their own rates, and typical pay for these roles is £17–£19 per hour. You can advertise an hourly rate within £18.80–£20 per hour for regular overnight care or consider the live-in day range of £145–£160 per day if you want longer patterns. Because you’re self-employed you control who you work for, when you work and the sorts of night support you provide.

This type of night support suits carers who are confident working one-to-one, can manage common overnight medical or personal-care routines, and prefer the predictability of agreed night assignments rather than agency shift churn. Night duties vary — from periodic checks and maintaining a calm environment, to more hands-on personal care — so every client brief will be clear before you agree to it.

To join you must have at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (PrimeCarers can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. PrimeCarers handles client introductions, drafts contracts, manages invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you work — letting you focus on care rather than paperwork.

• Self-employed and in control: set your own rates, choose clients, hours and service area.
• Support from PrimeCarers: client finding, contracts, invoicing, payments and insurance handled while you work.
• Apply in minutes: creating a profile is quick and profiles typically go live within days of verification.
