lots of nurseries in the UK have a black trousers and black shoes rule ( yeah i know, nutz, but there y'go) you could do worse than go for that with a bright and cheerful top Be decent in dress and remember that you will be bending over a lot( unless you remember and bend you legs like wot you ought to do!) so think about your neckline and how far it goes down and your top riding up over your waist line and exposing lots of bare belly Go for smart casual and don't forget to make a point of asking the manager on the first day about any dress code for the rst of your stay

I Googled Images (pictures) for nursery school attendants. The photos showed pull over shirts or evven button up blouses/shirts, and casual pants/slacks. The photos also showed a smile. You're gonna make it. MOREOVER, ask your parents also,

Don't dress up too much because you will be playing and running around with the kids and you might get a little dirty. You might want to wear your hear up so it doesnt flop around all day just in a ponytail maybe. You could wear some collared but casual short sleeve tshirts and nice jeans. You would be safe wearing regular tshirts to that aren't collared as long as they are fairly plain and dont talk about alcohol, drugs, or anything bad on them. And for shoes wear nice sneakers so you'll be comfortable but still look nice and proffesional.

I would suggest black trousers and a tshirt , blouse or polo shirt of some sort. Not too tight, and not too low! The nursery I used to work at also insisted that hair was tied back if it was long enough and that you didn't wear any nail polish. Jewellery had to be kept to a minimum too. Make sure that whatever you wear you don't mind getting paint, playdough or grubby fingers on as not all nurseries are good at providing aprons! Footwear wise, dolly shoes or any flat sensible shoe would be fine as you will be on your feet a lot. Some nurseries allow sandals, some don't. Good luck!

Denim and trainers are out of the question, plus tops with large prints or wording on them. But everything else is pretty much suitable. I'd wear some flat shoes (so you're comfortable running after the kids!), some formal trousers / knee length skirt, or even crops, and a vest / normal casual top. Make sure your confortable and presentable then you should be fine :)

Here's some to try: 1. Hair in a ponytail (optional) No hat! Normal shirt (Jacket if it's cold) Long jeans Running shoes (sneakers) 2. Hair down (optional) Clip (optional) Shirt with floral pattern Long skirt or jeans 'Sneakers' 3. Any hair Hat (optional) Nice shirt Long skirt Boots Buttoned coat 4. Hair in bun Dress (Optional) Jacket (optional) -If not dress- Hair in bun Shirt with collar (optional collar) Long jeans or skirt Sorry if they're not good. Try mix some together. It doesn't really matter what you wear but it does need to be appropriate (i know it doesn't really make sense) so just wear any shirt and jeans. I have a friends whose mum is a preschool teacher and she usually wears a black shirt and long jeans with running shoes and her hair in a bun or something like that (i think so if she gives any fruits her hair won't go on the food or something). I have never seen any nursery worker wear jewelery as for make up and nail polish, try not to wear any. I have NO idea why they don't wear it but... yeah... and be smart and don't wear something expensive. Remember how kids can be... trust me I had to work with pre-school kids since year 4(wow they can be so cute yet so annoying!)! And here's some tips: 1. Don't shout (they might cry or something) 2. No jewelery or anything expensive 3. Be kind 4. If they want to do something that they're not aloud, just say it to them nicely. 5. Idk? Have fun? GOODLUCK!!! Hope I helped and good luck!
