Why work for us

We’re a charitable social enterprise and this is what makes us stand out from the crowd. The children really do come first as we reinvest all income back into the nurseries and our people.

Over 75% of our nurseries are in areas of deprivation, where access to high-quality education and care can be limited. Some of our other nurseries subsidise these nurseries to keep them running where they are needed most.

More than 47% of our nurseries are Ofsted-rated ‘Outstanding’ compared to London’s average of only 16%!

At LEYF, we offer a competitive salary above the sector average, plus a 7% employer pension contribution while you contribute just 1%, meaning more take-home pay. Enjoy 70% off LEYF nursery fees for your children or grandchildren and access to top-quality training through our London Institute of Early Years.
