• Safeguarding: Follow safeguarding and child protection procedures, reporting any concerns to the Designated Safeguarding Lead without delay.


• Partnership working: Build strong relationships with parents and carers, sharing information professionally and encouraging learning at home.

About you

• Qualified: Level 2 or Level 3 qualification in Childcare or Early Years Education.


• Experienced: Experience working with children in an early years setting.


• Knowledgeable: Good understanding of the EYFS and safeguarding policies and procedures.
