Apprentice Nursery Practitioner - Small World
JUST CHILDCARE LIMITED
About the Role
Are you passionate about working with children? If so, you’ll be a perfect addition to our family! We are currently recruiting for an apprentice nursery practitioner in our Small world nursery! As a nursery apprentice, you will have the opportunity to observe childcare workers in the nursery as they teach, communicate and play with little ones.
At Partou, we’re more than just a team—we’re a close-knit community driven by a passion for childcare and a strong commitment to each child’s individual development.
Our apprenticeship programme offers a fantastic opportunity to train as an Early Years Practitioner while working towards a professional qualification, allowing you to earn while you learn in a supportive, engaging, and progressive environment. Alongside observing experienced practitioners, apprentices take on meaningful responsibilities such as planning and maintaining children’s records, developing an understanding of safeguarding policies, and sharing responsibility for the health, safety, cleanliness, and overall wellbeing of the children.
You’ll be supported and mentored every step of the way by qualified staff, build strong relationships with children, parents, and colleagues, and help plan and deliver activities in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). We offer a competitive hourly wage starting from £12.26 (depending on age).
- Level 2 Pathway apprentices at Partou usually become qualified Nursery Assistants within 12 months of starting
- After this, many move onto the Level 3 Pathway
