Do you believe that children learn best when they play and explore the world around them?

We are looking for an enthusiastic and experienced pre-school assistant to work 3 days a week at our fantastic community pre-school. The right person will have experience working with young children, share our commitment to learning through play and will ideally have a relevant Level 3 qualification.

You will be working with children aged 2 to 4, supporting their learning as they play. You will use your understanding of children’s learning and development to plan, deliver and adapt activities that ensure the best possible outcome for every child.

You will understand the importance of safeguarding when working with children and know how we all play a part in creating a robust safeguarding culture. This is why we will ask for an enhanced DBS check and two references before you start work.

You will work as part of an enthusiastic team and a sense of humour is essential. You will need to be flexible and a good team player, helping to set up and pack away toys, equipment and furniture on a daily basis.

Lady Bay Pre-school is open Monday to Friday during term time. Our working day is 8.30am until 3.15pm.  We are looking for someone who is able to work 3 days a week initially, but can also be flexible as working hours may increase during the course of the academic year. The salary is competitive, depending on experience and qualifications.

In normal times, we would love to invite you to visit our pre-school, but we can’t do this at the moment. Please feel free to give us a ring instead, so we can tell you more about this wonderful opportunity. You can also find out more by visiting out website, or our Facebook and Instagram pages.

All interviews will be carried out remotely.
