Looking for Early Years Roles That Work Around Your Availability?
We're hiring Level 2 and Level 3 qualified Early Years Practitioners for adaptable day-to-day supply work in top local nurseries.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities
As a Supply Nursery Practitioner, no two days are the same. Your tasks will include:
- Flexible Classroom Support: Stepping into different early years settings and seamlessly supporting the permanent nursery team.
- Engaging Children: Leading fun, play-based educational activities based on the EYFS framework.
- High Standards of Care: Assisting with meal times, outdoor play, hygiene routines, and keeping children safe and engaged.
- Safeguarding: Maintaining strict adherence to safeguarding, health, and safety regulations at every nursery you visit.
- Positive Energy: Building instant rapport with nursery staff, children, and parents.
