What your day will look like:

Creating a welcoming, vibrant atmosphere where children feel safe, happy, and excited to learn.

Helping to organize and run fun, age-appropriate play activities guided by the EYFS framework.

Assisting children through their daily routines, including messy play, mealtimes, hygiene, and outdoor adventures.

Building strong, trusting relationships with parents and sharing lovely updates about their child’s day.

Working hand-in-hand with an experienced team ready to support, guide, and collaborate with you.

Why You Will Love Being Part of This Team:

We are dedicated to making your return to childcare, or the start of your new career, as smooth and rewarding as possible. By joining our network in Lewisham and SE18, you will benefit from:

Fantastic Pay: Up to £13.50 per hour for candidates holding their 12-hour PFA.
