💛 Make a difference. Have a blast. Love your job!
Do you have the energy of a superhero, the creativity of an artist, and a passion for working with children?
Join our team as a Childcare Activity Leader and turn ordinary mornings and afternoons into unforgettable adventures! 🌈🎨⚽
At Junior Adventures Group, we’re not just childcare – we’re champions of fun! From football to face painting, scavenger hunts to snack time, you’ll bring smiles, laughter and energy to our Breakfast & After School Clubs for children aged 4–11.
This is a split-shift role, meaning you’ll work mornings and afternoons with a break in between – perfect for studying, family time, hobbies or simply having some time to yourself!
⏰ What are the hours?
Your core working hours are:
🌅 Breakfast Club: 7:15am–9:00am

🎨 What will you be doing?
As a Childcare Activity Leader, you’ll help create exciting, safe and memorable experiences for children every day.
Your role will include:
- ⚽ Delivering exciting, age-appropriate activities such as multi-sports, arts & crafts, group games and creative play

🌟 What are we looking for?

You’ll benefit from:
