Level 3 Early Years Practitioner

Temp to Perm Opportunity | Leeds

Are you a passionate Level 3 Early Years Practitioner looking for a role where you can build a long-term career while making a real difference to children's lives?

We're recruiting for a fantastic temp-to-perm opportunity within a highly regarded independent nursery in Leeds. This is the perfect chance to join a setting that offers the security of a permanent role while allowing you to experience the nursery and team first.

This nursery is truly special. With a strong Forest School ethos, outdoor learning is at the heart of everything they do. Children are encouraged to explore, take risks, build confidence, and develop a love of nature through meaningful outdoor experiences. Rain or shine, learning extends beyond the classroom, creating exciting opportunities for children to grow, discover, and thrive.

The setting has a warm, welcoming atmosphere and a team that genuinely cares about one another. Staff are valued, supported, and encouraged to bring their own ideas and creativity to the nursery. It's a place where your contribution is recognised and where you'll feel part of a close-knit team from day one.

The Role

  • Deliver engaging learning experiences in line with the EYFS framework
  • Support children's development through play, exploration, and outdoor learning
  • Build positive relationships with children, families, and colleagues
  • Observe and track children's progress and achievements
  • Create a safe, nurturing, and inspiring environment
  • Champion the nursery's Forest School and outdoor learning approach
  • What We're Looking For

  • Level 3 qualification in Early Years
  • Experience working within a nursery setting
  • A genuine passion for child development and learning through play
  • Enthusiasm for outdoor learning and nature-based experiences
  • Strong communication and teamwork skills
  • A caring, positive, and proactive approach
  • Why Apply?

  • Temp-to-perm opportunity with long-term career prospects
  • Full-time hours available
  • Competitive rates of pay
  • Work within a unique independent nursery setting
  • Strong focus on outdoor learning and Forest School
  • Supportive leadership and friendly team culture
  • Ongoing training and professional development
  • A rewarding role where every day is different
  • If you're looking for more than just a job and want to be part of a nursery that values creativity, outdoor learning, and supporting children to become confident little explorers, we'd love to hear from you.

    To apply or find out more, send your CV to Bree at Bheacock@veritas-education.com.
