Question 1

Do I have to pay anything to register?

Accepted Answer

No. Agencies in the UK are not allowed to charge people a fee for finding them work, and we never ask for one.

Question 2

Do I need a Level 3 qualification for nursery work?

Accepted Answer

Not always. Many settings take Level 2 practitioners and apprentices. Level 3 opens up more roles, and we can point you towards funded training.

Question 3

I'm still studying AAT. Can I apply?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Plenty of employers want people part-way through AAT, and many will pay for the rest of your study.

Question 4

Can you help me find an apprenticeship?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We recruit apprentices for Early Years, AAT and Business Administration, and can explain how apprenticeships work.

Question 5

When do temporary and bank staff get paid?

Accepted Answer

Every Friday, for the hours you worked the week before. Your payslip shows your hours, rate and deductions.

Question 6

What documents do I need?

Accepted Answer

Proof of your right to work in the UK, such as a passport or an eVisa share code, plus your certificates. For childcare roles we also process an enhanced DBS check.
