Permanent, Term Time Only 7.30am – 12.15pm approximately.
Come and Spread Your Wings at Bailey Bird Nursery – a brand new school‑based nursery opening September 2026.

We’re Looking For Someone Who

* Is warm, patient, enthusiastic and creative
* Enjoys working as part of a team and learning from others
* Understands the importance of safeguarding and children’s wellbeing
Why Join Bailey Bird Nursery
