Night Care Assistant Jobs in West Kensington

Work as a self-employed night care assistant in West Kensington supporting adults in their own homes with waking or sleeping nights so families can rest. You’ll provide personal care, medication prompts, companionship and reassurance through the night, and practical help such as repositioning, pressure-relief and light household tasks where agreed. You decide the level of involvement you’re comfortable with and whether you accept waking nights, sleeping nights or a mix.

Right now, 139 families are currently looking for care in the wider area.

This kind of work suits experienced carers who want flexibility and control. On PrimeCarers you set your own rate and choose your clients, hours and service area; typical pay for night care sits around £17–£20 per hour depending on the client and responsibilities. Many carers who move from agency work find they have more predictable nights, fewer split shifts and better work–life balance while keeping the same professional standards.

• Day-to-day duties: night-time checks, support with transfers, continence support, medication reminders, speaking with families and professionals when needed.
• Who it suits: experienced carers who can work calmly through the night, have good observation and record-keeping skills, and respect people’s homes and routines.

PrimeCarers finds you clients and handles contracts, invoicing and payments, and provides insurance while you’re working. You remain self-employed: you set your rates, accept the clients and shifts that suit you, and keep control of your diary. You can work across West Kensington and nearby areas such as Earls Court, West Brompton, Hammersmith, Kensington, Fulham and Holland Park, and many carers cover Hammersmith and Fulham when they want extra shifts.

To join you’ll need at least one year of professional care experience, an Enhanced DBS check (we can help arrange one), the right to work in the UK and verifiable references. You’ll complete a short profile and checks online; applying takes minutes and profiles typically go live within days of verification. PrimeCarers will support you through onboarding and connecting with families.

If you’re used to agency nights but want clearer control over who you work with and when, PrimeCarers lets you keep your professional independence while removing administrative hassle. You choose how many nights you take each week, you set your own terms and you keep the professional standards that families expect.
