Are you driven by those incredible "aha!" moments when a child learns something new? Do you bring boundless energy, a warm heart, and a genuine desire to make a real difference in early education?
We are partnering with fantastic, forward-thinking nurseries across Camberwell and the wider Southwark borough, and we are looking for deeply passionate Early Years Practitioners and Experienced Assistants to join our network.
We believe that enthusiastic, caring staff are the absolute heartbeat of any successful nursery. If you are ready to bring your dedication to the floor and actively help children thrive, we can offer you a rewarding role built around your life.
Ready to Make an Impact?
We do not believe in holding up great talent with endless interview rounds. If you hold an active Enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or are willing to apply for one) and can provide two professional childcare references, we will fast-track your clearance.

Requirements
Who We Are Searching For:
- Enthusiasm and a proactive willingness to help are the most important qualities we look for. We are actively welcoming candidates through two distinct pathways:
- The Qualified Experts (Level 2 & Level 3): You hold a "Full & Relevant" Early Years qualification (e.g., CACHE, NVQ, NNEB, Early Years Educator).
- The Experienced Unqualified Stars: You might not hold the formal certificate just yet, but you have the vital hands-on experience and a natural gift for childcare! If you have recent, verifiable professional experience working in a nursery setting and a drive to support early development, we want to hear from you.
The Essentials for Everyone:
- The Mindset: Absolute passion, unshakeable reliability, and an energetic, "can-do" approach to the nursery day. You must genuinely want to be there for the children.
- The Safety Standard: Holding a Full Paediatric First Aid (PFA) certificate is highly preferred. If you don't have one, you must be enthusiastic about obtaining it to help keep our environments safe.
Benefits
The Perks of Partnering With Us:
- Premium Pay, Paid Weekly: Your hard work and dedication are highly valued. Earn between £12.75 and £14.50 per hour, paid reliably into your bank account every single Friday.
- Keep It Local in SE5: Our "Local-First" focus means we connect you with wonderful early years settings right here in Camberwell and Southwark, keeping your commute stress-free.
- Total Schedule Freedom: You are entirely in control of your diary. Whether you want to work full-time hours, just a few days a week, or strictly term-time, you tell us when you are available.
- Grow Your Network: Earn a £100 cash bonus when you refer another enthusiastic childcare professional to us (once they complete their first 100 hours)!
