What you’ll do at work

Throughout the week, your primary responsibilities will include:

• Ensuring a safe and supportive environment that prioritizes the well-being of each child.
• Building rapport with both children and parents to foster a welcoming, inclusive community.
• Taking initiative to bring fresh ideas to each session and adjusting activities based on children’s engagement.

This role is ideal for those who love working with children, are committed to their development, and are enthusiastic about creating a joyful space that supports children’s growth and happiness.

In addition to your responsibilities within the breakfast and afterschool clubs, you will also assist with our daily walking bus service. Each morning, after breakfast club, you'll help safely walk children to their school. In the afternoon, you'll meet these children at school and walk them back to Limetree for afterschool club. Your role in the walking bus is crucial for ensuring each child's safety, maintaining a positive atmosphere, and providing a smooth, secure transition between school and club activities.
