Home Instead West Derby is looking for compassionate and reliable Waking Nights Home Care Assistants to support clients overnight in the comfort of their own homes

Are you someone who brings calm, reassurance, and compassion to others—especially during the quiet hours of the night? If so, you might be the perfect fit for our Waking Nights Care Professional team.

Waking night shifts run from 10pm to 8am, offering a unique opportunity to support clients when they need it most. These roles are essential in helping individuals feel safe, comfortable, and cared for throughout the night.


🌙 What Does a Waking Nights Care Professional Do?

Overnight care isn’t just about staying awake—it’s about providing steady, meaningful support. In this role, you’ll be responsible for:

  • Personal care and medication assistance
  • Light housekeeping
  • Companionship to ease night-time anxiety or loneliness
  • Monitoring wellbeing and responding to any needs or concerns

Your presence can make a world of difference, bringing peace and security to clients during the hours when they may feel most vulnerable.

  • Caring and considerate
  • Reliable with good communication skills
  • Able to work waking night shifts
