Overview
Do you have experience of working with babies, toddlers or pre‑school age children but are looking for a more flexible way of working than being tied to a specific number of hours per week? We are looking for someone to join us on a casual basis to provide cover across our nursery. With no commitment to the minimum number of hours per week, you will be able to pick and choose the available shifts where we require cover. You will be able to select the shifts which suit your needs best while at the same time doing a job you love! Our nursery is open Monday to Friday 7.30am - 6pm and we tend to offer shifts as half days or full days although we can discuss your specific availability.
We are Ofsted registered, with space for 90+ children in three age‑related rooms designed using the latest thinking for early years development and education. We will encourage curiosity and imagination through play and exercise. A truly inspiring place to be for young minds to belong, contribute and thrive.
