🏢 Baby Steps Nurseries LTD

⚡ On-site 📍 Croydon, England 🕒 1 day ago 💰 10 – 12 GBP /hr

Job Description

We are looking for enthusiastic and friendly nursery practitioners on a temporary basis for a busy nursery setting in Croydon!

Due to the ever-increasing numbers, the nursery is looking for practitioners to work on a temp/ ADHOC/ emergency basis to cover holidays, sickness, and the increase in numbers. The nursery can offer flexible working, full-day shifts are needed but days can be totally flexible to suit your needs.

As this role is temp, it can fit fantastically around childcare and/ or another role and you can plan in advance your weekly shifts and days of work.

The nursery is open from 7.30AM-6.30PM, so shifts will fall between these times. The typical shifts we have are 8AM-5PM & 8.30PM-5.30PM. The nursery is open all year round and is NOT term time only.

For this temp role, we will consider unqualified and qualified candidates- but previous experience in a busy nursery setting is essential.

Pay rates on a sliding scale are dependent on experience! £10 (unqualified)-(L2 & L3 qualified) £11.50 per hour, paid on a weekly basis through our agency PAYE.

There is an opportunity for the nursery to take candidates on, permanently if you did wish to commit long-term to this role!

If you are looking for flexible working, with a friendly team of practitioners this is the perfect role for you!

****For all of our temp roles we require our candidates to have a full enhanced clear DBS Check on the update service- we can process this on your behalf if you do not currently have a DBS****
