Summary

Job Title: Early Years Support Professional – Huddersfield & Kirklees District

Salary: £12.25 – £13.00 per hour (Full Salary Review: April 2026)

Location: Thornton Lodge, Deighton, Newsome, Crosland Moor, and HD Suburbs.

Work closer to home. Stay in Kirklees. Get paid premium rates.
Tired of the commute to Leeds or Manchester?

We have local Huddersfield nurseries that need your expertise. We are looking for practitioners who love the "messy" side of Early Years—creative play, outdoor learning, and supporting children’s development milestones. If you live in HD1, HD2, or HD4, we want to keep you local, rewarded, and respected.

The Reality of the Role:

Supply work in Huddersfield is about being a versatile professional. You might be based in a vibrant community nursery in Deighton one day and a smaller, private setting in Newsome the next. Your role is to step in and immediately add value—assisting the permanent team with the EYFS curriculum, managing mealtime routines, and ensuring every child is engaged and safe. You manage your own availability via our portal, and we work to match you with local settings on the days you choose to work.

The Qualification Bar:

Qualified Tiers: Must hold a government-approved Level 2 or 3 in Childcare/Early Years (e.g., NVQ, CACHE, NNEB).

Important Note: We cannot accept Health & Social Care or Teaching Assistant (TA) qualifications for our qualified practitioner rates.

Unqualified Tier: We welcome staff with other backgrounds (including TA or Social Care) who have worked extensively (3+ month experience) in a nursery setting to join our team as Unqualified Assistants.

The 2025 Standard: Under new statutory regulations, you must hold a Full Paediatric First Aid (PFA) certificate to be counted in ratios. If you don't have this, we can support you in finding a course, provided you are willing to pay for and complete the training.
