Nurtured Childcare is a multi-award winning group of nurseries operating across the North of England.

Be part of our nurturing community, developing the next generation. The first 5 years of life shape who you are for life. Learn the ‘Nurtured’ approach with enhanced training opportunities that suit all learning styles.

As a Nursery Apprentice, you will be taking the first steps in your career as you support children in the most important part of their learning development.

Not only will you gain on-the-job training and development, you will also understand what it is like to play a leading role in a child’s education. Our apprentices are given the tools to become practitioners of the future, some have even moved into senior management positions.

  • Are you a great sculptor? By great, we mean can you make a worm out of playdough?
  • Could you drink endless cups of pretend tea lovingly made by our children?
  • Do you have the stamina to help children with toilet breaks…lots of toilet breaks?
  • Are you prepared to laugh a lot at work? Laughter will be something you experience all day.
  • Are you able to mop up tears as and when needed and provide big hugs on command?
  • Multitasking is a big part of working in a nursery, especially keeping tabs on roaming little heads as they are constantly inside the room, then outside in the garden.

Benefits Include:

  • Paid Breaks.
  • Enhanced Holiday Allowance.
  • Mental Health First Aider at every site.
  • Flexible Working Patterns.
  • Regular Team Socials.
  • Regular training & development.
  • Employee of the month awards.
