Could this be the next step in your early years career?
Apex Primary School is looking for an experienced early years professional to become a registered childminder within their new school childcare setting.
If you’ve spent years working in nurseries and have ever wondered what it might be like to have something of your own, this could be worth a look.
What makes this opportunity unusual is that you’re not being asked to start from scratch. The school is already well established amongst the Islamic and wider community and the childcare setting, which will be based in a neighbouring Masjid, will be a valuable feeder to the setting that helps the transition of children.
It’s a self-employed role, but not a case of being left to figure everything out for yourself. You’ll be working alongside other childminders and assistants, and support is available through the @Home Childcare network as you get started.
We’re looking for someone with strong early years experience who enjoys working with families, takes pride in creating high-quality experiences for children and is excited by the idea of helping to develop a childcare service rooted in Islamic values.
For some people, this will feel like a bigger step than moving to another nursery. For others, it might feel like the opportunity they’ve been waiting for.
