The role:
• Part-time or full-time hours available
• Minimum pay rate of £14.25 per hour, with the opportunity to increase depending on qualifications and experience
• Immediate starts available
• Candidates currently working a notice period can also be considered
• Supporting children's learning, development and wellbeing

Experience working with children aged 0–5 is particularly beneficial, although relevant experience with children in other educational or childcare settings may also be considered.
