Early Years Educator

Early Years Educators work with children from birth to five years old, helping them learn and develop in a safe and stimulating environment. Their main duties include planning and supervising activities, supporting children with learning and social skills, liaising with parents and carers, and ensuring the safety and wellbeing of the children in their care. Early Years Educators can work in a range of settings, such as nurseries, pre-schools, and reception classes in primary schools. The role requires patience, creativity, and a good understanding of child development, as well as meeting regulatory requirements such as holding a recognised Level 3 qualification in Early Years Education and Care.
