- Have a passion for working with Early Years children
- Understand the importance of children’s curiosity, exploration, imagination & thinking
- Provide a safe, welcoming and respectful environment
- Enthuse and encourage children to become confident and independent learners
- Have a love for outdoors & be a ‘Weather Warrior’!
- Believe in our ‘Curiosity Approach’ ethos, our values, and vision
- Value our awards for exceptional standards in first aid (Millie’s Mark) and sun safety (Sun Safe Nurseries)
- Build a solid understanding of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS)
- Work well using their own initiative, in a busy and rapidly changing environment
- Be a team player with excellent communication skills
- Be willing to go the extra mile
- Implement our policies and procedures at all times
- Contribute to the planning and implementation of our environment and child-led learning approach
- Have excellent spoken and written English skills
