Nursery Assistant

• Are you ready to make a lasting impact in the lives of children aged 2–5?
• Do you believe every little learner deserves a safe, inspiring space to grow and thrive?
• Could you be the caring, steady presence that helps shape a child’s very first steps in education?

At TeacherActive, we know that working in early years is about so much more than childcare—it’s about shaping the building blocks of confidence, independence, and curiosity. As a Nursery Practitioner, you’ll be making a difference every single day, supporting children through the most formative years of their lives.

Why This Role Matters:
In nursery settings, the smallest moments make the biggest difference. Whether it’s helping a child learn to share, supporting their first attempts at writing their name, or seeing their excitement in outdoor play, your impact will be long-lasting. You’ll be at the heart of creating safe, happy spaces where children feel valued and ready to explore the world around them.

Your Role Will Include:

• Supporting children aged 2–5 in their social, emotional, and cognitive growth

• Planning and delivering engaging, play-based activities that spark curiosity

• Creating a safe and nurturing environment that celebrates individuality

• Working alongside colleagues and families to ensure consistent, high-quality care

• Supporting daily routines such as snack time, naps, outdoor play, and transitions

What We’re Looking For:

• A Level 2 or 3 Childcare qualification (or strong nursery-based experience)

• A patient, nurturing, and positive approach to early years education

• Flexibility and adaptability to support a variety of nursery settings

• Enhanced Child-Only DBS on the update service (or willingness to apply)

• Immediate or September availability

In return for the above you can expect to receive:

• A dedicated team of consultants available 24/7 to help you with the easy onboarding process
• Guaranteed Payment Scheme *Terms and Conditions apply*
• CPD Courses and certificates as part of 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.
