A rewarding Early Years role supporting Reception children who need calm, consistent, and nurturing support to thrive.
Long Term Futures is seeking a compassionate and experienced Reception SEN Teaching Assistant to join a warm, inclusive Early Years setting in Northfield. The role involves supporting several pupils with emerging social communication needs, as well as providing more focused support for a child with an EHCP related to emotional regulation and past trauma.

- Supporting small groups and individual pupils showing early signs of autism, focusing on communication, social interaction and engagement.
- Using play-based strategies, visual aids and structured routines to help children access learning.
- Supporting behaviour through a nurturing, predictable approach grounded in Early Years practice.
- Assisting with phonics, early literacy, early number work and child-led activities.
- Helping maintain a safe, supportive, and stimulating classroom environment.
Ideal Candidate Profile
- Experience working in EYFS (Nursery or Reception) is highly desirable.
- Background supporting children with emotional needs, trauma-informed approaches, or early autism indicators.
- Warm, patient and calm, with excellent skills in building trust and positive relationships.
- Passionate about early childhood development and inclusive practice.
- Reliable, proactive, and able to work collaboratively within a strong Early Years team.
Why Work with Long Term Futures?
