£1,000 on completion of Ofsted check + hourly rate for additional work | Remote (UK-wide)
This is a perfect role for someone who is working in a substantive EYFS role currently and would like an extra income top up.
At Koru Kids, we’re building the world’s best childcare service, starting right here in London. We’re dedicated to making childcare easier, more affordable, and brilliantly high-quality. We’ve grown fast, backed by some fantastic investors, and won awards for our technology, people, and positive social impact.

A Childminding Agency (CMA) is an organisation regulated by Ofsted that registers, supports, and inspects individual childminders to ensure high standards of childcare. Koru Kids became a CMA around four years ago but stopped actively trading as a CMA a couple of years later. Currently, there is no operational work required as part of our CMA—with one key exception: maintaining an EYFS specialist to comply with Ofsted regulations. We had someone in this role, but when we shut down the trading part of our childminding agency, we sadly lost that person too, in their full-time capacity. Ofsted has recently informed us that we need to re-engage someone in a nominal capacity only, as we are dormant.
We’re currently facing a quirky—but essential—challenge. Ofsted regulations require us to have an EYFS expert on board to maintain our CMA registration. At times in our past we’ve had many of these in-house but right now we don’t have anyone with extensive current knowledge of the EYFS.
This is the perfect opportunity if you’re already deep in the EYFS world—perhaps as a nursery manager, deputy manager, primary teacher, or similar—and you’re looking for a super-simple way to earn extra money.
That’s it. No regular meetings, no daily duties—just a straightforward, light-touch role.
(You don’t need previous experience with Childminding Agencies or really to even know what one is, in order to apply for this role. However, you will need to quickly learn the necessary regulatory information.)
Timing: We’re looking urgently! Ofsted has given us a short window to fill this role, so if you’re interested, get in touch fast.
Location: Entirely remote within the UK.
If this sounds like you—or you know someone perfect—get in touch immediately. This role won’t hang around!
We are committed to working towards a fairer world. Details are here and for a TON more info about our company culture in general, check out our careers page.
