Job Description:
GLL are currently recruiting both permanent and flexible Nursery Practitioners, Level 3 Qualified to provide a safe, stimulating, educational and fun environment for children attending the Better Community Nursery, located within Burnt Oak Leisure Centre.
As a Nursery Practitioner, you will promote the physical, social, emotional, and intellectual development of children up to 5 years old through sensitive individual planning of each child’s changing needs, while encouraging their independence and self-reliance. Our nursery practitioners have excellent written and verbal communication skills as you’ll work with colleagues and partners to integrate the nursery with the wider children’s services brand to help identify and support the needs of local families with young children.
You should have experience working with children under five years of age and their families, with an NVQ Level 3 in Child Development (or equivalent), and be able to respond to both group and individual needs. Knowledge of the EYFS framework and principles, safeguarding issues, procedures, and an understanding of equality and diversity issues would be beneficial. You’ll be a confident team member with a positive, driven attitude.
Our nurseries provide childcare and welfare for children up to five years old, so it’s essential that the facilities and surroundings are clean, safe, and welcoming.
What you’ll do:
* Plan and participate in group-led activities with individual and groups of children, meeting their development, age, and interests, supporting their access to a broad, balanced indoor and outdoor curriculum in accordance with the Early Years Foundation Stage.
* Be a key person for one or more children to develop warm relationships with children and families, supporting their learning and development, and sharing knowledge about their progress.
* Involve parents/carers in their child’s progress through daily informal contact, record keeping, and review meetings.
* Support and value each child’s home culture and language, and contribute to planning for children with English as an additional language.
* Contribute to maintaining a stimulating, secure, caring, and inclusive environment that promotes equal opportunities and diversity for children and their families.
* Take responsibility for children in indoor and outdoor areas and on trips, providing appropriate supervision and intervention to support their learning.
We offer scope to progress your career and a variety of job opportunities within the leisure industry.
