Volunteers
Tots ’R’ Us Nursery has a local community ethos whereby we welcome and provide opportunities for volunteers who may be considering future training towards a recognised childcare qualification. These volunteers offer a valuable contribution to our nursery.
Apprenticeships & Student Placements
We recognise that qualifications and training make an important contribution to the quality of the care and education provided by early years settings. We offer apprenticeships and placements to students undertaking early years qualifications and for school pupils on work experience. We aim to provide experience that contributes to the successful completion of their studies and that provides examples of high-quality practice in early years care and education.
