A Career in the Early Years
A career in early years involves working with children between the ages of 0-5 in a variety of settings, including nurseries, pre-schools, childminding, and foundation units or reception classes within schools.
As an early years practitioner, you will be responsible for ensuring the children in your care receive a high standard of care, education, and development opportunities. Your duties may include planning and delivering age-appropriate activities, observing and assessing children's progress, communicating with parents and colleagues, and ensuring the safety and wellbeing of the children.
The early years sector is regulated by the government and requires practitioners to hold a relevant qualification, such as a Level 3 Diploma for the Early Years Educator. There are also opportunities to progress to more senior roles, such as a room leader or nursery manager, with further training and experience.
Working in early years can be rewarding, as you will play a crucial role in shaping a child's early years and supporting their development. However, it can also be demanding and requires patience, resilience, and a passion for working with young children.
