Looking for a Fresh Start or a Friendly Step Back into Early Years? 🌸✨

Whether you have just completed your Level 3 qualification and want to build solid, hands-on experience without being thrown into the deep end, or you are an experienced practitioner returning after a career break, family leave, or time away, we have a warm, welcoming space for you.

At Nexter Recruitment, we believe early years work should be rewarding, supportive, and adaptable to your life—not an exhausting cycle of late-night paperwork and rigid rotas.

We are seeing high demand from friendly partner nurseries across East Leeds (LS9) and immediate neighboring communities. If you want a stress-free way to practice what you love with supportive teams close to home, our flexible cover network was built for you.

Why This is the Ideal Way to Work:

Top Hourly Pay Every Single Friday: Earn £13.50 per hour (for Level 3 practitioners holding a valid 12-hour Paediatric First Aid certificate).

Total Diary Flexibility: You decide when you work. Pick shifts that match school runs, family routines, or personal commitments. Work as little as 1 day a week or full 5-day weeks—you remain in total control.

Pure Childcare, Zero Paperwork: Enjoy being on the floor with children again. Focus 100% on hands-on play, sensory activities, and positive relationships. No learning profiles, no tracking folders, and no planning to take home.

A Gentle, Welcoming Environment: Perfect for easing yourself back in. You’ll be supporting established nursery teams who genuinely appreciate an extra pair of capable, caring hands.

Keep Your Commute Short: We focus on placements across LS9 and neighboring pockets like Richmond Hill, Halton, Cross Gates, Harehills, and Burmantofts, cutting out lengthy journeys across the city.
