Level 3 Early Years Practitioner – Playdor Burnley
At Playdor, we don’t just run a nursery… we create an environment where children thrive, staff feel valued, and every day is filled with curiosity, laughter, and a little bit of magic.
We’re on the lookout for a Level 3 qualified Early Years Practitioner who brings energy, care, and a genuine love for working with children.
Playdor is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff to share this commitment. The successful applicant will be required to undergo an enhanced DBS check, provide suitable references, and complete all relevant safeguarding and safer recruitment checks in line with statutory guidance.
Why Playdor?
At Playdor Burnley, we’ve created a warm, welcoming space for children aged 0–5 to explore, learn, and grow. Our setting is cosy, creative, and full of opportunity, where imagination is encouraged and every child is truly seen.
