After School Care Assistant
The Villa Pre-Prep School & Nursery, London
Part-time/Monday – Thursday/2:30pm – 6:00pm/Term-time only/£14ph/ Start date: 3 September 2026
We are looking for a warm, enthusiastic and hands-on person to join our after school care team at The Villa Pre-Prep School & Nursery.
This is a role for someone who genuinely enjoys being around young children and wants to be part of a close, supportive team.
You will be helping to provide a safe, fun and nurturing environment for our pupils in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 at the end of the school day — supporting with activities, mealtime, outdoor play, and ensuring every child feels happy, settled and well looked after.
You don’t need to have done this exact role before — what matters most is your attitude, your energy, and your willingness to get stuck in. Full training will be provided, and you will be supported by experienced colleagues who will help you find your feet.
We would love to hear from you if you:
Are reliable, positive and enjoy working as part of a team
Have a genuine interest in working with young children
Are patient, kind and happy to roll up your sleeves
Can commit to Monday to Thursday during term time
Are looking for a role in a small, friendly school where you will be valued
The Villa is a nurturing independent pre-prep school in the heart of London. We are proud of the warm, family feel of our school and the strong relationships we build with every child and family. Our team is small but dedicated, and we are looking for someone who will fit right in.
To apply, please send a short covering letter and your CV to hr@thevillaschoolandnursery.com
