Summary

More2Childcare Nursery Greenwich
Greenwich, London SE10 9EQ
Full Time – 4 Days Per Week
More2Childcare Nursery Greenwich is looking for enthusiastic and reliable individuals to join our nursery team as an Unqualified Nursery Practitioner Apprentice, working directly towards a Level 3 Early Years qualification.
This is not a Level 2 route — candidates must be academically capable of completing a Level 3 course alongside full-time work. The apprenticeship takes a minimum of 12 months to complete.
We would also like to hear from candidates who already hold a Level 2 or Level 3 qualification in Health & Social Care and are looking to begin a career in Early Years.
Important:
We are unable to sponsor candidates for UK work visas. Applicants must already have the right to work in the UK.
Salary
• £8.25 per hour for school leavers
• £12.81 per hour for candidates with previous work experience and transferable skills
Salary increases once qualification achieved.
What We’re Looking For
• Passion for working with children
• Good communication and written English
• Reliable, professional and willing to learn
• Ability to complete Level 3 coursework and professional documentation
• Positive attitude and strong work ethic
GCSE English and Maths Grade 4/C or above are desirable.
Location Requirement
Due to the importance of punctuality and reliability, candidates should ideally live within a one-hour commute of SE10 9EQ.
Career Progression
Early years is a stable sector with genuine long-term career opportunities. Following completion of Level 3, progression may include:
• Senior Practitioner roles
• Room Leader positions
• Management pathways
• Degree apprenticeships for the right candidates
Full training, mentoring and support provided.
Safeguarding & Safer Recruitment
More2Childcare is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff to share this commitment.
Successful applicants will be subject to:
• Enhanced DBS check
• Online/social media checks as part of safer recruitment
• References from previous employers
• Right to work checks
• Verification of qualifications and employment history
Any gaps in employment history must be explained. Candidates must demonstrate professionalism, good judgement and an understanding of safeguarding responsibilities when working with children.
