Children need to be taken care of all the time - even when their parents and carers are not around, which is why professional childcare is so important. This Apprenticeship is for people who work with children from 0 to 16 (and their families). They make sure children are looked after, and kept active, happy, and nourished. They also help children develop social and practical skills.

Children's Care, Learning and Development can take place in a great variety of places: in daycare centres, crêches, hospitals and community-based programmes, to name a few. As an Apprentice, the exact nature of your job role will depend on your employer, though you'll be working in a supervised setting. You could learn to keep children safe, methods of play that promote development and learning, and ways to build positive relationships with children. You could also choose to learn about working with children with special needs.
