Job Overview

Job purpose

At Pinocchio's nurseries in Edinburgh and Midlothian we strive to put each child's individual social and emotional needs first.

There is an established support team in place including Standards and Quality Manager, Accountants and each setting having Cleaners and Chefs meaning you can focus on the children in your care.

As an apprentice practitioner, you will be responsible for working as a team, to help provide a stimulating, safe environment for children to grow and develop. We are looking for someone who enjoys spending time outdoors, supporting children to learn. Outdoor play is an important part of the day for the children and we look at it as an extension and continuation of the playroom.

You will work toward the practitioner qualification - Social Services (Children and Young People) SVQ 3 at SCQF Level 7 which will take approximately 18 months.
