Your hours, local nurseries, no paperwork

Nexter Nursery Recruitment is based in Birstall, so Kirklees is our home patch. We have nursery shifts from Huddersfield and the valleys to Dewsbury and Batley. We're looking for Level 3 and Level 2 practitioners and experienced nursery assistants.

Are you newly qualified, coming back to childcare after a break, or an assistant with real nursery experience? We'll find work that fits your life, and we'll always call you back.

Pay rates

• Level 3 qualified: £13.50 per hour
• Level 2 qualified: £13.00 per hour
• Unqualified, with nursery experience: £12.75 per hour

What you get

• Weekly pay every Friday.
• Holiday pay accrued on every hour you work.
• Work when you want. Choose from 1 to 5 days a week, school hours or term-time only.
• Zero admin. No learning journals, no profile tracking and no planning folders to take home.
• Local work. We know the nurseries in Lindley, Almondbury, Holmfirth, Dewsbury and Batley well, so we can place you close to home.
• A local team you can rely on. We do what we say we'll do.

What you'll need

Level 3 (£13.50/hr): A full and relevant Level 3 Early Years qualification, such as EYE, NVQ Level 3, CACHE Level 3 or NNEB, plus a current 12-hour Paediatric First Aid certificate.

Level 2 (£13.00/hr): A full and relevant Level 2 Early Years qualification, plus a current 12-hour Paediatric First Aid certificate.

Unqualified (£12.75/hr): At least 3 months' verifiable experience in a UK private day nursery, pre-school or early years centre within the past 2 years.

Teaching Assistant and Health & Social Care qualifications don't count towards nursery ratios. If your Paediatric First Aid has lapsed, we'll help you book a certified course.

Everyone needs:

• Good working knowledge of the EYFS.
• An Enhanced DBS on the Update Service. If you don't have one, we can fully support you in processing a brand-new check.
• 2 professional, verifiable references.
