Working@Unicorn

Thank you for thinking of joining our team. We pick our team on the values that we cherish, their friendliness and a genuine love of children.

Unicorn's core mission is to be a happy team with happy children and happy parents.

Qualifications and Training

Our apprenticeship programme

If you are looking to work in childcare as a career, we do have a robust apprenticeship training programme on offer in both of our nurseries. We work with various training providers such as Paragon, and local colleges such as Sandwell College.

Apprenticeship training

An apprenticeship gives you hand-on experience, a salary and the opportunity to gain qualifications while you work. Whoever you are, whatever your background – if you want to get your childcare career going, an apprenticeship is a great place to start. To apply, you must be 17 or over.

Practitioners (Bank Team)

We are looking for new practitioners to join our team, both qualified and unqualified.

We are a small family business with masses of career opportunities. Day Nurseries tend to be either privately-run single locations or large chains. We bridge the gap, with our two nurseries in Oldbury and Tipton.

Small, loving childrens' nurseries with the dynamism and best practice of a much larger business; you get the best of both worlds. With us the children are all treated as individuals, and so are you.

We know that for everything to work well you need to be happy and that's our number one objective. We believe that to work with young children you need to have a love of children, be a great team player, be friendly, but, above all, be professional.

If you think that that describes YOU, we'd love to hear from you.

To apply you will need to be over 17, and have a clear DBS Check.

We currently have full-time (40 hours per week) and part-time positions available, and as we are open 7.30 am to 6.00 pm we are able to offer a certain amount of flexibility. We also offer part-time working hours 7 am to 9.30 am, 4.00 pm to 6.00 pm and bank-team lunch/absence cover.
