Join Talent Board and help shape children's futures from the very start

Talent Board is seeking warm, enthusiastic and committed Early Years Teaching Assistants to work across nurseries, Early Years units and foundation stage classrooms throughout the Wirral. These flexible supply positions offer a mix of part-time and full-time opportunities, including short-term and long-term placements to suit your lifestyle.

Whether you have Early Years experience already or come from a childcare, support or care background, this is a fantastic opportunity to support children in their most important developmental years.

Your Role

As an Early Years TA with Talent Board, you will:

• Support practitioners and teachers in delivering play-based, engaging Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) activities.
• Provide nurturing 1:1 or small-group support to help children develop communication, social skills, and early learning.
• Foster a warm, safe, and stimulating environment where children feel confident to explore and learn.
• Assist with personal care and routines such as feeding, toileting, changing and hygiene, ensuring comfort and dignity.
• Help set up indoor and outdoor learning areas, prepare resources, and maintain a well-organised EYFS environment.
• Encourage positive behaviour and emotional development through modelling and gentle guidance.
• Follow safeguarding procedures and uphold the highest standards of child protection.

What We're Looking For

We'd love to hear from you if you have:

• Experience working with young children, either in early years settings, nurseries, childcare, or similar care/support roles.
• An understanding of the EYFS framework and child development (desirable but not essential).
• A nurturing, patient and positive approach.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to build trusting relationships with children and staff.
• The confidence to use your initiative and work effectively as part of a supportive team.
• A genuine passion for helping children learn, grow and thrive.

All applicants must either hold an Enhanced DBS check or be willing to obtain one.

This Early Years role offers invaluable experience for anyone pursuing a career in childcare, nursery work, teaching, Early Years education, or child development. You'll play a vital part in children's early learning while developing your skills in a rewarding, hands-on environment.

What We Offer:

• Competitive, transparent pay rates.
• Weekly pay and a smooth, supportive onboarding experience.
• Flexible working options across Wirral nurseries and EYFS settings.
• A friendly, dedicated team who truly value and support our staff.
• A variety of placements allowing you to build strong Early Years experience.
