At Wildflower Murrayfield Day Nursery & Preschool, we believe every child deserves the very best start in life and every apprentice deserves the very best start to their career.
We're looking for an enthusiastic Early Years Apprentice to join our caring, experienced team in Edinburgh. This is your opportunity to earn while you learn, gaining valuable hands-on experience in a nurturing nursery while working towards a recognised Scottish Early Years qualification that supports SSSC registration.
Whether you're leaving school, looking for your first career, or ready for a fresh start, we'll give you the knowledge, confidence and support to flourish. You'll work alongside experienced practitioners who are passionate about helping you develop into a skilled Early Years professional.
Every day brings something new, and as an apprentice you'll:
-
Learn how children develop through play, exploration and meaningful experiences.
-
Support children's learning, care and daily routines in a safe and nurturing environment.
-
Help create inspiring spaces where children feel confident, curious and excited to learn.

-
Observe and celebrate children's progress and achievements.
-
Work towards a recognised Scottish Early Years qualification while gaining practical experience every day.
-

-
Are kind, caring and patient.
