Level 3 Early Years Practitioner

£14.5 - £16 per hour

Do you have a passion for helping young children learn through play, discovery, and adventure? We are looking for caring and enthusiastic Level 3 Early Years Practitioners to join a vibrant nursery that places curiosity, creativity, and child-led learning at the heart of everything it does.

Whether you're seeking the flexibility of daily supply work or the stability of a long-term placement, this is an exciting opportunity to become part of a setting where children are encouraged to explore, question, and grow in confidence.

About the Setting

This forward-thinking nursery provides a stimulating environment where children are inspired to become active learners. Through a blend of outdoor experiences, imaginative play, and enquiry-based learning, children are supported to develop the skills and confidence needed for future success.

The nursery's philosophy is centred around:

  • Encouraging children to learn through exploration and investigation
  • Developing independence, resilience, and self-confidence
  • Promoting creativity and imaginative thinking
  • Supporting communication, collaboration, and social development
  • Creating meaningful learning experiences both indoors and outdoors

With dedicated outdoor spaces and a strong focus on learning beyond the classroom, children are given opportunities to connect with nature, solve problems, and discover the world around them.

Your Role

As a Level 3 Early Years Practitioner, you will:

  • Support children in their learning and development through engaging activities
  • Create a warm, safe, and inclusive environment where every child can flourish
  • Encourage children's confidence, communication, and independence
  • Help deliver exciting indoor and outdoor learning experiences
  • Build positive relationships with families and colleagues
  • Support children's emotional, social, and educational development

What We're Looking For

  • Level 3 qualification in Early Years or Childcare
  • Previous experience working within a nursery or early years setting
  • A positive, energetic, and nurturing approach
  • Strong communication and teamwork skills
  • Commitment to providing high-quality early years education
  • Enhanced DBS on the Update Service, or willingness to obtain one

What We Offer

  • Flexible daily supply opportunities
  • Long-term placements available
  • Competitive rates of pay
  • Friendly and supportive nursery teams
  • Valuable experience within a creative and child-centred setting
  • Ongoing support from a dedicated consultant

If you believe children learn best when they're given the freedom to explore, create, and discover, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply today and help inspire the next generation of confident, curious, and capable learners.

All applicants will require the appropriate qualifications and training for this role. Please see the FAQs on the Protocol Education website for further details.
