Job description

Level 3 Nursery Practitioner | Catford | Up to £14.50ph

Step into a Rewarding Early Years Role in Catford!

If you are the kind of person who regularly leaves work with paint on your trousers and a smile on your face, you are exactly who we want to hear from. Nursery life is wonderfully unpredictable, and we are looking for practitioners who thrive in that environment—people who celebrate the little victories, whether that is a child finally putting their own coat on or a messy sensory session that ends in fits of giggles.

We are proud to be teaming up with a lovely variety of nurseries right across Catford and the SE6 area. They need dependable, cheerful Early Years Practitioners and Assistants to join their daily routines on a flexible supply basis.

You already give so much of yourself to the children you look after. We believe you should have a work life that gives back. If you’re looking for a schedule that actually fits around your family, your studies, or just gives you some well-deserved time to breathe, we can make that happen.

What You Get From Us:

Weekly Pay You Can Count On: Earn between £12.75 and £14.50 an hour, and watch it land safely in your bank account every single Friday.

Stay Local to SE6: We know the commute can be exhausting. That’s why we actively match you with fantastic nurseries right on your doorstep in Catford and the nearby neighborhoods.

Pick Your Own Hours: You are completely in charge. Whether you want to work full-time, just a few days a week, or only cover shifts during the school terms, we build your rota around you.

The £100 Colleague Bonus: Got a friend who is brilliant with kids? Introduce them to us, and we’ll send you a £100 bonus as soon as they complete their first 100 hours.

Who We Are Looking For:

We need friendly, proactive staff who don't wait to be asked to help out. We are currently taking on professionals through two different routes:

You have a full, relevant Early Years qualification (like an NVQ, CACHE, NNEB, or Level 3 Early Years Educator).

(Please note: We cannot accept Teaching Assistant or Health & Social Care certificates for these specific nursery ratio roles).

2. Experienced Unqualified Assistants:

You might not have a formal childcare diploma on your wall just yet, but you have solid, recent experience working in a nursery. If you understand how a busy room runs and love being part of it, we want to hear from you.

What you must bring to the table:

A Great Vibe: A caring nature, real reliability, and the willingness to just get stuck in with the kids and the core team.

First Aid Knowledge: A Full Paediatric First Aid (PFA) certificate is ideal. If you haven't got one yet, you just need to be happy to complete the training to ensure the children stay safe under our watch.

Let’s Get Things Moving

f you have an Enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or don't mind applying for one) and can share two professional childcare references, we will get your checks sorted quickly so you can start earning.

What Makes You a Great Fit:

You have a full, relevant Early Years qualification (like an NVQ, CACHE, NNEB, or Level 3 Early Years Educator).Your Vibe: You bring a positive, reliable, and eager-to-learn energy to the room. We don't expect perfection on day one; your enthusiasm is your best asset.Your Commitment to Safety: A rigorous dedication to safeguarding is essential. (An Enhanced DBS check is required for this role).
