Join Our Little Nursery Family
| We are a small and truly unique childcare setting, and what makes us special is our warm, supportive, and genuinely passionate team. Our nursery is cosy and homely — a place where everyone knows one another well and where children feel safe, loved, and happy every single day. We care for just eight babies, eight toddlers, and eight preschoolers, which means our days are calm, personal, and full of meaningful moments. Small group sizes allow children to be truly known, heard, and celebrated for exactly who they are. Our team is close-knit, kind, and full of laughter. We support one another, share ideas, and always put the children first. We often say our nursery is a hidden gem — a place that feels much more like a second home than a workplace. In fact, over the past ten years, we’ve only opened a handful of roles… because people tend to fall in love with working here and stay. If you’re reading this and smiling already, you might be exactly who we’re looking for. We are looking for someone who is: – Warm, gentle, and kind-hearted, with a big heart and a calm presence – Truly passionate about early years, child-led play, and tiny humans with big personalities – Patient, caring, and able to build strong, trusting relationships with children and families – Positive, enthusiastic, and happy to muck in as part of a small, supportive team – Reflective in their practice, thoughtful in their approach, and always child-focused – Confident using their initiative — but also happy to follow a child’s lead into their imaginary world – Comfortable being a dentist one minute, a bus driver the next, and a customer in a café five minutes later — often while sitting on a chair made for someone half your size – Able to laugh at the chaos, celebrate the small wins, and find magic in muddy shoes, paint-splattered sleeves, and endless “why?” questions Experience in an early years setting and a Level 2 or Level 3 childcare qualification are desirable, along with a good understanding of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). We are fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All successful applicants will be required to undergo enhanced DBS checks, suitable references, and ongoing safeguarding training in line with statutory guidance.  If this sounds like your kind of place, we would love to hear from you. Please send your CV to myhappydays1000@gmail.com, and we’ll be in touch. |
