Start your career with us
At Partou, apprenticeships play a key role in our nurseries, by providing the right support, environment, and the chance to learn while you work.
Whether you’re just starting out, or ready for the next step in your early years career, both our Level 2 and Level 3 Early Years apprenticeships will offer you hands-on experience, expert support and guidance, and the opportunity to make a real difference every day.
We work closely with trusted training providers across the country to help you build skills, gain recognised qualifications, and grow in confidence as part of a caring and knowledgeable team.

Joining us as an apprentice means more than just training — it means becoming part of a team where children lead the way, and where your growth matters just as much as theirs.
Every Partou nursery has its own setting, in its own location, within its own community. But visit any one of them, anywhere in the UK, and you will find the same set of shared values.
Through Partou & You, every team member, regardless of role or contract, has access to learning, support, and career development opportunities.
At Partou, we believe in:
Care
Creating a warm, safe, and inspiring environment for children.
Compassion
Understanding that flexibility matters and offering different ways to work
Continuous learning
Providing opportunities for every team member to develop, grow, and progress.
The early years are a crucial window for building a healthy relationship with food, and what children eat between birth and five shapes habits that last a lifetime. At Partou, expertise and evidence sit behind every meal, so here’s what good early years nutrition looks like in practice.
Food and nutrition are an important part of Partou nursery life. Learn how we develop our menus using expert knowledge and DfE guidance and how we support children to make mealtimes enjoyable.
Partou team members donated Easter gifts to children in Manchester, continuing their support for Home‑Start Manchester and families facing challenging circumstances. Find out more about the initiative.
