About the role

Nursery work in Calderdale, close to home
Nexter Nursery Recruitment has nursery shifts from Halifax and Brighouse up through Elland, Sowerby Bridge and Hebden Bridge. Whether you're Level 3, Level 2 or an experienced nursery assistant, you choose when you work and we keep you local.
We welcome newly qualified practitioners finding their feet, people returning to childcare and experienced assistants. We always call you back.
Pay rates

Level 3 qualified: £13.50 per hour
Level 2 qualified: £13.00 per hour
Unqualified, with nursery experience: £12.75 per hour

What you get

Weekly pay every Friday. No waiting until month end.
Holiday pay accrued on every hour you work.
100% diary freedom. Choose school hours, term-time only, a couple of days or full-time.
No admin. No learning journals, no profile tracking and no evening planning folders. When the shift ends, you clock out.
Local work in your part of the valley, so you're not spending your day on the A646.
One consultant who knows you, including your preferences and how far you're happy to travel.

What you'll need
Level 3 (£13.50/hr): A full and relevant Level 3 Early Years qualification, such as EYE, NVQ Level 3, CACHE Level 3 or NNEB, plus a current 12-hour Paediatric First Aid certificate.
Level 2 (£13.00/hr): A full and relevant Level 2 Early Years qualification, plus a current 12-hour Paediatric First Aid certificate.
Unqualified (£12.75/hr): At least 3 months' verifiable experience in a UK private day nursery, pre-school or early years centre within the past 2 years.
Teaching Assistant and Health & Social Care qualifications don't count towards nursery ratios. If your Paediatric First Aid has lapsed, we'll help you book a certified course and get you active.
Everyone needs:

Good working knowledge of the EYFS.
An Enhanced DBS on the Update Service. If you don't have one, we can fully support you in processing a brand-new check.
2 professional, verifiable references.
