How to recruit for permanent nursery roles in Bristol during 2026

The New Year is here, and that means our Clifton Early Years recruitment experts are fielding queries from clients on how to recruit for permanent nursery roles in Bristol.

We have been providing Early Years settings with temporary and holiday cover nursery staff since 2009, but we also offer long-term, permanent recruitment solutions to nurseries across all BS postcodes.

In fact, we cover all aspects of Early Years recruitment, from a set period of time, such as a single day, right up to ongoing assignments.

There is an increasing demand for permanent candidates, as recruiting for permanent nursery roles in Bristol, as it only requires a one-off fe,e not ongoing weekly Early Years recruitment agency payments.

Class offers support in the background to all clients when we place a candidate in a permanent role.

This could include, for example, a newly-qualified candidate who does not yet have a significant amount of experience. We help them to adjust to the new setting and bridge the gap between the candidate and the nursery.

This benefits all parties and goes well beyond simply providing a nursery worker for a full-time nursery role.

Although some Early Years settings in Bristol recruit in-house for new candidates, it can be difficult for staff and management to find the time required to advertise.

The complex process of shortlisting, interviewing candidates in a timely manner and ensuring the best candidate is still available are part of our expertise as a well-established recruitment agency for Bristol nurseries.

There are many elements to consider when it comes to thinking about how to recruit for permanent nursery roles in Bristol, such as:

Advertising

Short-listing

Interviewing

DBS & compliance checks

Taking up references

Organising Stay & Play (putting candidates in a setting for a test session)

Another factor to consider is the fact that Class has a massive candidate database, meaning we are able to provide the best possible nursery workers in Bristol to a setting.

Having the skills, experience, expertise and candidates available means we can save nursery settings a huge amount of time when it comes to recruiting a nursery worker for their Early Years business in the city.

We also only get paid a release fee when a new candidate is taken on by a nursery. This means we complete a significant amount of work initially.
