Quality first approach
We are qualified nursery practitioners supporting London nurseries to find the right permanent staff — not just available staff.
We specialise in Level 3, Room Leader, Deputy and Nursery Manager roles across private nurseries in London.
No temps. No volume recruitment.
Just thoughtful, carefully matched, long-term placements.
Recruitment delivered by professionals who understand EYFS
We are not generalist recruiters. We are qualified nursery practitioners who understand:
-
Ofsted expectations
-
EYFS framework requirements
-
Safeguarding responsibilities
-
Ratio pressures
-
Leadership workload
-
The importance of team stability
We know that one hire can influence morale, parent confidence and inspection outcomes. That is why our approach is measured, selective and informed by real nursery experience.
We recruit exclusively:
-
Level 3 Qualified Practitioners
-
Room Leaders
-
Deputy Managers
-
Nursery Managers
Every candidate is personally screened by an Early Years professional who understands both compliance and classroom reality.
Our Approach
Measured. Focused. Discerning.
We begin with a detailed conversation — not just about salary and hours, but about:
-
Your nursery culture
-
Leadership style
-
Team dynamics
-
Ofsted objectives
-
Long-term staffing goals
You receive a carefully curated shortlist of 3–5 strong candidates.
Not volume.
Not guesswork.
Not rushed introductions.
We manage:
-
Candidate screening
-
Interview coordination
-
Offer negotiation
-
Post-placement follow-up
Because we only offer permanent recruitment, our focus remains entirely on long-term alignment and retention.
