Calling all Early Years Assistants: ready to make a difference in the nursery while taking back control of your schedule?
We are currently partnering with a variety of excellent nursery schools, preschools, and day nurseries in the area. We are looking for passionate, qualified professionals to support these vibrant early years communities.
Whether you are an experienced practitioner looking to step away from the pressures of full-time room leadership, or a newly qualified educator eager to build confidence across different settings, we can help you find your perfect balance.
Find Your Ideal Way of Working
- Day‑to‑Day Cover: Take complete control of your schedule. Choose exactly which days you want to work to perfectly fit around your personal commitments, studies, or lifestyle. It is a fantastic way to experience different school settings.
- Long‑Term Opportunities: If you prefer stability, we have fixed‑term roles spanning a term or a full academic year (covering maternity, sickness, or interim gaps). It's the perfect way to truly embed yourself within a local nursery team and see your key children progress.
What We Look For
- EYFS Qualifications: Cache Level 2/3, NVQ Level 2/3 in Early Years/Childcare, Foundation Degree, or Early Years Teacher Status (EYTS / QTS).
- A deep understanding of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) statutory framework.
- Nurturing behaviour management skills and the ability to inspire young learners through play‑based learning.
- An adaptable, proactive approach, ready to hit the ground running in new early years environments.
- A valid Enhanced DBS check on the Update Service (or a willingness to complete one).
Benefits of Working With Us
- Competitive rates of pay, processed weekly and reflective of your experience level.
- A dedicated local consultant with deep knowledge of the Education and childcare sector.
- A completely transparent service that works strictly around your personal availability.
- The chance to explore different local settings, which frequently opens doors to permanent positions if that is your ultimate goal.
