Waking Nights Support Worker

About the Role

As a Waking Nights Support Worker at [Employer hidden — sign up to reveal], you’ll create a calm and reassuring environment, supporting people to feel safe, comfortable, and well throughout the night. Recognised as a Great Place to Work for seven years running, we’ll support you too — with training, wellbeing resources, and a workplace where you can be you.

About the People You’ll Support

You’ll be working in a warm, friendly home supporting five adults aged 40–70, each with learning disabilities and their own personalities, routines, and interests. While your role is focused on nights, you’ll be part of a team that helps them live the life they choose.

Here are some of the things they love during the daytime:

• Scenic drives
• Meals out at the pub
• Arts and crafts
• Peaceful visits to Frimley Lodge Park
• Planning and going on holidays

What Your Night Shifts Will Look Like

As a Waking Nights Support Worker, you’ll stay awake and alert throughout your shift, ensuring safety, comfort, and continuity of care. You’ll be:

• Carrying out regular night-time wellbeing checks
• Repositioning people to maintain comfort and health
• Providing personal care with dignity and respect
• Keeping the home safe, clean, and comfortable with light household tasks
• Writing clear, simple documentation about events overnight
• Responding calmly and kindly if someone wakes, needs reassurance, or requires support

Every task contributes to a peaceful and secure night — for the people you support and their families.

Your Working Pattern

• Tuesday nights, 10pm–7am
• Saturday nights, 10pm–7am
• Part-time (two waking-night shifts per week)

Sleep-ins and day shifts are not part of this role.

Who We’re Looking For

You don’t need previous care experience — just compassion, patience, and a steady, reassuring presence at night.
