Summary

Job Opportunity: Level 3 Early Years Practitioner
Location: Tottenham, London
Salary: London Living Wage Employer
Hours: 37.5 hours per week, term time only
Start Date: ASAP

We are a small, friendly, charity-run setting for children aged 2–4. We pride ourselves on our child-led, free-flow approach to learning and play — and we’re looking for a passionate, experienced, enthusiastic Level 3 Early Years Practitioner to join our team!

What We’re Looking For:
We believe the right person is just as important as the right qualifications. So, if this sounds like you, we want to hear from you:

You have a warm, smiling face that makes every child feel seen and valued.

You can laugh at jokes you don’t understand — and make up even better ones!

You’re a little quirky — and can become the world’s best pirate captain at a moment’s notice.

You’re confident announcing your toilet breaks in a room full of toddlers (and colleagues!).

You can sing — in tune or not — with gusto and pride.

You give warm hugs generously and sincerely.

You can count a crowd of moving children faster than a magician counts cards.

You don’t mind mystery stains on your clothes (or being asked about them on the bus home).

You’re a pro at talking about bodily functions without flinching.

You’ve mastered the art of pretend tea drinking and playdough tasting.

You can read a story upside down while answering a dozen questions per page.

Most importantly: you are ready to have fun, laugh a lot, and feel truly valued by the children and families you work with.

Why Join Us?
Work in a warm, supportive team where your creativity is celebrated.

Be part of a setting that respects the voice of the child and the magic of play.

Enjoy school holidays off (term time only contract).

Contribute to a long-standing community setting rooted in care, inclusion, and fun.
