About the role
Nursery Assistant – Stoke-on-Trent
£14.24 to £16.15 an hour · Paid every Friday · Choose your own days
Qualified in Early Years? Your experience is in demand across Stoke.
Supply nursery work means spending your shift doing what you came into childcare to do — working with children.
No key-person paperwork following you home. No Sunday-night observations. No learning journeys to catch up on after your shift.
Finish work, go home, and get paid for every hour you work.
If you are a Level 3 Nursery Assistant or Early Years Practitioner, particularly with Paediatric First Aid, I want to hear from you.
I work with nurseries, pre-schools and school nursery settings across Tunstall, Burslem, Hanley, Fenton, Longton, Meir, Blurton and surrounding areas.
What you get
- £14.24 to £16.15 an hour, depending on the role, qualifications and experience
- Paid every Friday
- Choose your days. One, three or five – you tell me when you can work
- No key children, learning journeys or paperwork to take home
- Work across ST1 to ST6
- Day-to-day, regular weekly and longer-term bookings
- Free training and development to help you progress
What I am looking for
For qualified roles, I am particularly looking for:
- Level 3 Early Years or Childcare qualifications
- Paediatric First Aid – if yours has expired or you haven't completed it yet, tell me
- Experience in a nursery, pre-school or Early Years setting
- A DBS on the Update Service, or willingness to obtain one – I can help with this
Not Level 3 yet? Apply anyway.
I also recruit Nursery Assistants for roles where Level 3 isn't required, so there may still be work available.
Applying is easy
You don't need a CV ready.
Send your name and mobile number and I'll call you. Or contact me directly and simply say “NURSERY”.
I aim to call applicants back the same day.
You're not applying for one isolated vacancy. Once registered, I can contact you whenever suitable nursery work becomes available.
Straight with you
Before accepting a shift, you'll know where you're going, the hours and what the setting needs from you.
Tell me which days you want, where you're happy to travel and whether you prefer different settings or becoming a regular face at one nursery.
One consultant, local nursery work, and someone you can actually speak to when plans change.
How to Apply
Apply through this website with your contact details, or send your name and number and I will call you.
