LOCATION – BARBICAN

Are you looking to work for an organisation whose culture is driven by our HEART principles – Honesty, Excellence, Accountability, Respect, and Teamwork? Where you can be yourself, feel supported, and help to make a difference to the next generation? Somewhere you can say: “I did that.”
We’re looking for an Early Years Apprentice to join our City Child nursery which features four thoughtfully designed rooms filled with natural light and age-appropriate resources, including a separate sleep room for babies and a preschool room led by a qualified teacher. Staff enjoy working in a purpose-built setting with a spacious outdoor garden—a rare gem in central London—where children engage in activities like Gardening Club, Boogie Mites music sessions, and creative play. The nursery is just a short walk from Barbican, Moorgate, Bank, and Liverpool Street stations, making commuting easy and convenient.

As an Early Years Apprentice, you will work as part of a team to look after babies and children up to the age of 5. You will have adventures with our children through interactive play, activities, reading, and encouraging their curious minds – creating learning opportunities that support the children’s learning. With the support of your assessor, you will attend all required training and coursework for completion of your formal qualification. You will reflect and proactively use new ideas and initiatives, including feedback, to enhance development and learning.
