CACHE Level 3 Diploma for the Early Years Workforce (EYE) (QCF)

This course is for those who wish to either start their career in childcare or gain a professional qualification. The course is awarded by CACHE which is the leading awarding organisation in the care sector.

The course we offer is full and relevant providing you with a license to practice.

This course combines two professional Diplomas to bring you an understanding of the public and private sector when looking after children as both bring their own set of skills and responsibilities.

The course combines high standards of teaching, mentoring and assessing, along with providing opportunities to gain practical childcare skills. Through participation in a work placement scheme, we provide nanny students with an amazing opportunity to both study and build up their professional experience in childcare. With a rising demand for highly qualified and dedicated childcarers within the private sector, professional nannies attract a great deal of interest from families of all types, including high profile families within the UK and overseas.

This intensive course is designed for working people, with weekend classes and guided online learning available throughout the academic year

The main benefit of completing this course is having a wide range of employment opportunities that our students can choose to follow. You can apply for work in settings (crèches, nurseries, reception classes at schools, pre-school centres) as practitioners or pursue a career of a professional nanny in the private home setting. There is no other childcare training centre in London that combines these two different career paths in one course.

This course is ideal for people who aspire to become a qualified Nanny, practising Nannies wanting to enhance their knowledge and skills and gain a nationally recognised qualification and other child carers wanting to gain qualification and/or work experience in the early year’s settings.
