Do you love helping young children learn, explore and grow? Are you looking for a childcare role that fits around your lifestyle?

We are looking for enthusiastic and caring Nursery Teaching Assistants to work flexibly within a welcoming Early Years setting in North Bristol.

You choose when you work. Whether you’re looking for one or two days a week, something alongside other commitments, or regular flexible work, we can offer opportunities to suit your availability.

The role

You’ll support children within an Early Years environment where play and exploration are at the heart of learning, with engaging, well-resourced activities designed to encourage curiosity, independence and development.

We’re looking for someone who:

Is enthusiastic, patient and nurturing
Enjoys working with young children
Can get involved with messy play, stories, outdoor learning and creative activities
Is reliable and able to work well as part of a team
Has previous nursery, EYFS or childcare experience, although relevant transferable experience will also be considered

Why choose flexible work?

✓ Work the days you want
✓ Fit work around family, study or other commitments
✓ Gain experience in a supportive Early Years environment
✓ Enjoy variety without committing to a full working week
✓ Choose the amount of work that suits you

If you’re passionate about Early Years and want a role that gives you flexibility without giving up rewarding work with children, we’d love to hear from you.
