Nursery Apprentice Level 3 - Birchington Kent

At Noah’s Ark, we offer a wide range of activities designed to support the development of children’s social, physical, language, and intellectual skills, helping them grow into confident and independent individuals. As a Nursery Apprentice, you will be expected to provide the highest standard of care and education for the children in our setting. Under supervision, you will be trained to perform the role of a qualified practitioner, contributing to the physical, emotional, social, and intellectual development of each child. You will work as part of a team to create an enabling environment where children can play, learn, and thrive, while building strong relationships with your mentor, colleagues, and parents. Your responsibilities will include attending relevant training, supporting staff with a positive attitude, and maintaining effective communication with families. You will also help ensure a high-quality environment that respects individual needs, cultures, and medical backgrounds, while preserving confidentiality and reporting any concerns to management. Flexibility is essential, as you may be asked to assist with administrative tasks, domestic duties, snack preparation, and event participation. You will also support the planning and delivery of engaging play opportunities, maintain hygiene and safety standards, and be aware of key roles such as safeguarding officers and SENCOs. Administering first aid and completing necessary documentation will also be part of your role. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone passionate about early years education and eager to begin a rewarding career in childcare.
