Are you a qualified Early Years Professional looking for work that fits around your life? Do you love supporting the growth and development of little learners but want the freedom to choose your own shifts?

Zen Educate is seeking dedicated, qualified Level 3 Early Years Practitioners / Nursery Nurses for daily and short-term cover across fantastic nurseries, pre-schools, and primary school reception classes in Bridgwater, Taunton, and Wellington.

Whether you are looking for a few days a week to balance other commitments, or full-time hours without being tied down to one permanent contract, we have flexible options to suit you.

Why Work via Zen Educate?

We aren’t a traditional agency. Zen Educate is an ethical, tech-led platform designed to give education and childcare professionals a fairer deal.

*

Professional Growth: Access to free training and professional development (CPD) modules to keep your skills sharp.

Providing a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment for young children to play and learn.

*

Assisting with the delivery of age-appropriate activities aligned with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum.

*

Supporting children with daily routines, including meal times, outdoor play, and personal care.

*

Building quick, positive relationships with children, staff teams, and parents/carers.

*

Ensuring high standards of safeguarding and health and safety are maintained at all times.

What We Are Looking For

*

A full and relevant Level 3 qualification in Childcare / Early Years (e.g., NVQ Level 3, CACHE Level 3, or equivalent).

*

Sound knowledge and practical experience working with the EYFS framework.

*

An adaptable, energetic, and warm personality with a genuine passion for early childhood development.
