to help us provide childcare to as many families as possible.
During our rigorous recruitment process, we will ensure that all candidates:
Some of our agency workers may already hold a relevant qualification in childcare and work in a childcare setting. They may therefore have additional qualifications and be registered with Scottish Social Services Council. We will share all relevant information about agency workers qualifications and experience with our clients when childcare arrangements are made.
