Job description

Level 2 Nursery Practitioner / Early Years Assistant | Leeds LS9 | £13.00ph

Put Your Level 2 Childcare Qualification to Work on Your Own Schedule

Did you recently complete your Level 2 in Early Years or Childcare and want a friendly place to find your rhythm? Or maybe you hold a Level 2 certificate, took time away for family, and are ready to ease back onto the floor without the pressure of permanent rota lock-ins?

At Nexter Recruitment, we partner with welcoming nursery teams across East Leeds (LS9) and neighboring communities who value dependable, hands-on support.

This isn't about being handed an overwhelming folder of paperwork on your first morning. It’s an approachable, stress-free way to build confidence, gain diverse room experience, and earn dependable weekly money doing what you enjoy.

Reliable Weekly Earnings

Take home £13.00 per hour (for Level 2 qualified staff holding a 12-hour Paediatric First Aid certificate), deposited straight into your bank account every Friday.

A Rota That Works Around You

Choose your working days week by week. Work around nursery drop-offs, college modules, or simply work 2 to 3 days to suit your household routine.

Focus on the Children, Not the Bureaucracy

Spend your shifts reading stories, facilitating sensory activities, and guiding messy play. You won't have to write observations, update tracking portals, or take work home after hours.

Great Stepping Stone

Gain real-world room experience across baby, toddler, and pre-school rooms at your own pace—ideal if you ever plan to study for your Level 3 down the line.

Placements Close to Your Front Door

We keep your bookings local to LS9, Richmond Hill, Burmantofts, Cross Gates, and Halton so you spend less time travelling and more time earning.
