Description
We’re looking for experienced carers in Tooting to provide overnight care — waking or sleeping nights supporting a client in their own home so families can rest. These are ongoing self‑employed opportunities: you pick the clients, the hours and the area you want to work in. Right now, 155 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.
Night shifts vary. Some families need a waking carer who provides regular checks and hands‑on support; others need a sleeping night carer who is on hand and responsive if a call‑out is required. Either role suits carers who are calm, confident at night, and happy working one‑to‑one in someone’s home.
If you’re considering moving away from agency life, PrimeCarers is built for autonomy. You remain self‑employed and set your own rate (typical ranges are around £17–£20 per hour). You also choose which clients to accept, the hours you want and the service area — whether you prefer central Tooting or neighbouring parts of the borough and beyond.
PrimeCarers finds clients for you and handles the practical stuff: contracts, invoicing and payments are taken care of, and insurance is included while you work through the platform. That means less admin and more time focused on quality care for your night clients in Tooting and across Wandsworth.
To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, the right to work in the UK, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange this) and verifiable references. We don’t list single shifts here — we advertise ongoing roles so you can build trusted relationships with families.
- Flexible pay: set your own rate and keep control of earnings; typical ranges are £17–£20 per hour.
- Choose your work: pick waking or sleeping nights and accept clients that suit your skills and availability.
- Less admin: PrimeCarers handles contracts, invoicing and payments, with insurance covered while you work.
- Local opportunities: work across Tooting and nearby areas including Tooting Bec, Colliers Wood, Earlsfield, Balham, South Wimbledon and Streatham.
Applying takes minutes: create a profile, upload your documents and references, and our team verifies you. Profiles typically go live within days of verification. If you want help with an Enhanced DBS or have questions about working nights in Tooting, our team is here to support you.
If you’re ready to pick up more meaningful night work, keep control of your rates and cut the agency admin, PrimeCarers can introduce you to families who need consistent overnight support. Start your profile today and see relevant opportunities across Tooting and Wandsworth in a matter of days.
