ABOUT US

This nursery is part of Storal, a group of nurseries across England. It is our vision at Storal to be the nursery group that every family and educator wants to be part of. Our values are built around creating this environment for teams and children. We believe in high standards, praising each other, pulling together as a team whilst actively helping others to grow and that’s only the beginning of the story. We do what we say we do and if you align with this approach, then a Storal nursery is the place for you.
Storal is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All employees will be subject to background checks, enhanced DBS check and reference checks.

An early years apprentice at Storal you will be given on-the-job training to help you build a career working with young children, typically from birth to five years old. You will gain hands-on experience while also studying towards a qualification.

Day to day you will be;

• Assisting with activities that support learning and development, following health and safety procedures, and helping with the physical care of children (feeding, napping, hygiene).
• Observing and supporting children’s social, emotional, and physical development, under the guidance of experienced staff.
• Working under the supervision of our qualified early years staff who will provide you with mentoring, feedback, and guidance to ensure you learn best practices.
• Learning about child protection protocols, reporting procedures, and how to maintain a safe and hygienic environment.
• Learning regulations specific to the childcare sector, like the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) in England.
• Developing skills to help you effectively communicate with young children, their families, and other staff.
