Are you a caring and enthusiastic Nursery Practitioner looking for your next full-time opportunity?

Do you have a Level 2 or Level 3 Childcare qualification, or at least six months of experience working within an Early Years setting?

Would you love to be part of a nurturing nursery where every day is different and children's development is at the heart of everything you do?

TeacherActive is proud to be working with a fantastic nursery in Belper (DE56) that is looking to welcome a passionate Nursery Practitioner to their team. This is a fantastic opportunity to join a supportive setting that values creativity, curiosity and learning through play, providing children with a safe and stimulating environment to flourish.

As a Nursery Practitioner, you will work full-time across a variety of shifts between 8:00am and 6:00pm, supporting children throughout their daily routines. You will deliver engaging play-based activities, encourage learning through continuous provision, support small group sessions and provide personal care where required. A good understanding of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), the Early Learning Goals and child development is essential. A driving licence is helpful but is not a requirement for the role.

  • A Level 2 or Level 3 Childcare qualification, or a minimum of six months' recent experience within an Early Years setting.
  • A sound understanding of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and the Early Learning Goals.
  • Experience supporting children's learning through continuous provision and play-based activities.
  • Confidence working with children individually and in small groups.
  • A patient, caring and positive approach with a genuine passion for Early Years education.
  • A strong commitment to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children.

In return for the above you can expect to receive:

  • A dedicated team of consultants available 24/7 to support you.
  • Guaranteed Payment Scheme* (Terms and Conditions apply).
  • CPD Courses and certificates through the My-Progression channel.
  • Market-leading rates of pay.
  • TeacherActive Referral Scheme - Receive up to £100 when you refer a friend* (Terms and Conditions apply).

Our staff are paid on a PAYE basis, so you can rest assured that you’re paying the right level of TAX and National Insurance and there’s no messing around with admin charges coming out of your hard earned cash.
