A rewarding career in childcare

Little Inspirations is an award-winning day nursery group with 13 settings across South Wales, from Llantrisant and Newport to Pontypridd, Swansea, Treorchy, Barry, and beyond. For over two decades, we've been a trusted part of our local communities — giving children the best possible start in life, and giving our team the support, training, and opportunities to build a career they're proud of.

We're proud to be recognised as FSB Welsh Employer of the Year and part of the Small Healthy Workforce Scheme — recognition that reflects how seriously we take looking after the people who look after our children.

Why Work With Us

  • Earn while you learn. Our apprenticeship programme, run in partnership with Educ8, welcomes apprentices at every level — from entry-level through to advanced qualifications.

  • A clear path forward. From Nursery Assistant to Room Leader to Manager, we run a formal training and progression programme so your career can grow as far as you want to take it.

  • Room for every skillset. Beyond nursery practitioners, we hire administrators, domestic and catering staff, and nursery managers — every role plays a part in our children's development.

  • Work experience welcomed. We partner with local schools and colleges to offer placements for students aged 15+, exploring a future in childcare.

  • A genuinely supportive employer. Recognised as FSB Welsh Employer of the Year, we back that up with real investment in our people's wellbeing.
