Qualified Practitioners - #1658582

Are you a nurturing and experienced Level 3 Early Years Educator looking to take the next step in your childcare career? We’re working with a well-established nursery in the heart of Colliers Wood that’s seeking a passionate Early Years Practitioner to join their preschool team on a full-time, permanent basis. In this role, you'll take on key person responsibilities for a small group of children, supporting their learning, development, and wellbeing in preparation for their transition to school. You'll work within a warm, inclusive environment that champions a child-led approach and encourages curiosity, creativity, and independence. The ideal candidate will hold a Level 3 qualification (or above) in Early Years and have at least one year of hands-on experience in a nursery setting. You’ll need to demonstrate a sound understanding of the EYFS framework and Birth to 5 Matters, as well as the ability to observe, track, and document children’s progress effectively. A confident communicator with strong written and verbal English skills is essential. Key responsibilities will include planning and delivering stimulating activities that reflect children’s individual interests and developmental needs, maintaining up-to-date learning journals, and working closely with families and the wider team. You’ll also play a vital role in ensuring high standards of safeguarding, health, and safety are upheld at all times. This nursery offers a positive, collaborative working culture with a real emphasis on professional development and wellbeing. Staff benefit from additional leave, a company pension scheme, regular team events, discounted or free meals, onsite parking, a staff referral scheme, and a health and wellbeing programme.
