​​We are a fun, friendly and very experienced organisation, we welcome applications from caring and enthusiastic individuals to work with our children in a state of the art and safe learning environment. We opened the first Out of School scheme in Europe and added a Day Nursery in 1984. We can provide care for nearly 200 children aged 0-11 years in our two storey child care centre, which we designed ourselves and opened in 2009.

 

What our apprentices say

​

"The staff are amazing and very welcoming, they've always been there to help me when needed. I'm very happy I did pick Gingerbread Corner for my apprenticeship because it has felt like a family since I joined! Everyone is very supportive and easy to talk to and the children will always brighten up your day!" - Kiyanna

 

"Being an apprentice at Gingerbread Corner has helped me to learn, develop and embed the knowledge that has been taught to me throughout my apprenticeship. It has also helped me grow in confidence and gain experience working in early years. My colleagues and management staff at Gingerbread Corner are always very supportive and are willing to help me in any way they can" - Georgie
