Job description

This is an exciting opportunity to be involved in an early years home learning programme in Westminster/Kensington & Chelsea. ParentChild+ has been delivered in America for over 50 years, working one-to-one with families who face significant life challenges. The model is based on one home visit and one group session each week, for at least 37 weeks, by home visitors.  It addresses a range of outcomes for parents whose children are at risk of starting school below the expected level, by offering free books, toys and homemade resources and modelling how to create a rich home learning environment.​

The Early Years Team Leader will manage ParentChild+ to support 100 families over 2 years. The role will work with the Regional Manager to train, supervise and manage a team of Home Visitors and volunteers to deliver the early years home learning programme in each area.​

You must have experience of managing a project, meeting targets and deadlines as well as experience of supporting families and managing staff. You will also need to have experience of safeguarding and a degree in Early Years Education or a Level 3 Early Years qualification. A commitment to ensuring equal opportunities and diversity is also essential.​
