A Level 3 changes your position in a nursery

A Level 3 qualification counts towards the qualified ratio, lets you be a key person, and in most settings makes you the one holding the room together when things get busy.

That makes you genuinely scarce in London, and it should show in what you are offered. A lot of Level 3 practitioners stay on the pay and hours they started on because moving feels like too much hassle.

Agency work is the low-risk way to find out what else is out there. Work a few settings, see what they are like from the inside, and move permanently only when you find one worth committing to.

Roles that use the qualification

Room leader, key person and senior practitioner roles — not just extra pairs of hands. Tell us what you want to be doing and we will match to it.

See several settings, then choose

Agency bookings let you compare nurseries properly. Ratios, management, how the team actually treats each other. Then pick.

Common questions

Which Level 3 qualifications do you accept?

The full-and-relevant Level 3 qualifications recognised for the early years ratio, including the Early Years Educator and the CACHE Level 3 Diploma. If you are unsure whether yours counts, send it over and we will check.

Can I get room leader roles through an agency?

Yes. Room leader and senior practitioner roles come up regularly, both as long-term cover and permanently. Tell your consultant that is the level you want.

Will agency work hurt my career progression?

It usually helps. You see more settings in six months than most practitioners see in five years, which makes you better at the job and much clearer about where you want to end up.

Do you offer training?

Yes, we give our candidates access to training courses. If you are working towards Level 5 or a management role, tell your consultant so we can point you at the right placements.

How soon can I start after registering?

Once compliance is complete — references gathered and DBS obtained or verified. If you hold a DBS on the update service it is considerably quicker.
