A fantastic opportunity has arisen to join our new PATA creche service. This Gloucester based service supports families and community partners by offering high quality, safe and nurturing childcare in a welcoming environment. Our creche will operate in well equipped, community locations across Gloucester with inviting spaces that encourage play, exploration and early development.
This is a flexible role with ad hoc hours, ideal for someone who is passionate about working with young children and can provide high-quality support. Creche sessions will run for 2 hours, with staff paid for 3 hours per session to cover set up and close down. We are looking for enthusiastic Early Years Practitioners with a Level 2 qualification or above to join our pool of creche workers. You will help to deliver a warm and engaging experience for young children under 5.
We are initially running a block of 8 weekly sessions on Wednesdays with hours between 9:30am - 3:30pm but are keen to hear from anyone interested in joining our creche worker pool who may be able to support on other days in the future. Start Date: May 2026
The ideal candidate will be committed to providing an excellent standard of care, enjoy working as part of a supportive team and bring creativity, energy and a genuine passion for early years. You will need to be confident in working with parents and carers including those who may feel anxious about leaving their child, perhaps for the first time.
