Level 3 Childcare Apprenticeship - Culham Science Centre Nursery and Pre-School

Shoots Training are looking for an enthusiastic, reliable and hardworking individual to complete their Level 3 Childcare Apprenticeship at Culham Science Centre Nursery and Pre-School.


At Culham Science Centre Nursery and Pre-School we take babies from 5 weeks up to about 18 months. Each baby has their own key worker who will get to know them well and fit in with their individual routine and personal care needs. We know parents have their own routines at home for their babies so your baby can have sleeps, feeds, cuddles and play time when your baby wants it.


We have 2 lower preschool classrooms and can accommodate 24 children in each room.

We still have our key worker system and settling-in sessions in the lead up to your child moving into their new room so they get a chance to gradually familiarise themselves with the environment and bond with the team in their new room.


Their key worker will again be the person they have the strongest connection with during these settling-in sessions and the key worker will spend a lot of time getting to know your child well and learning about what they enjoy playing with and their personal care needs.


Those who still need a lunchtime nap are able to do so while the other children enjoy quiet play and cultivate a love of books in our cosy corner.
