Description

Nursery: Children 1st Syston, 1324 Melton Road, Syston LE7 2EQ Hours: Casual, variable hours, Monday-Friday, Full Time and Part Time Salary: £12.21 - £12.80ph dependent on qualifications and experience Hi , I'm Kirsty, the Nursery Manager at Syston. I’m proud to lead a passionate and dedicated team, and we feel truly privileged to be part of our child’s early years—providing a nurturing environment where they can learn, grow, and thrive. Our carefully designed spaces—from the calming Tree Room to our exciting Cottage and Construction areas—spark creativity, imagination, and a love of learning. With dedicated gardens for each age group, our children spend their days immersed in nature, exploring, discovering, and engaging in hands-on learning through play. Our warm and welcoming atmosphere, combined with a wide range of thoughtfully selected resources, creates a home-from-home where every child feels safe, happy, and valued. Who & What is Storal? It’s our collective group of Nurseries that we are happily apart of here at Blossom Tree. Storal stands for high quality outcomes for children and are passionate about Early Years. Bringing your whole self is a must if that’s pink hair, being Neurospicy or having a unique pastime, we encourage it all. Your unique self is what makes our Nursery even better. Check out our website to learn about our leaders and the expertise they bring to our Storal community. About you You are a Level 2 or above qualified, Early Years Educator / Practitioner / Nursery Nurse or similar and you're looking for an Early Years Educator/Nursery Nurse/Early Years Practitioner role that allows you flexibility of working shifts around your other commitments. You enjoy supporting and encouraging the natural curiosity and excitement of young children and were born to teach and shape the future of our younger generations. You have a natural, nurturing, openness, a warm and positive outlook, and you care about learning and education standards in the UK. (We can sometimes consider unqualified Educators, so if you can demonstrate the necessary values and enthusiasm for working within this environment, submit an application. Nothing ventured nothing gained). What you'll be doing You’ll be helping to provide cover for the children as and when needed. This could be for periods of holiday, sickness, or even vacancy gaps. Sometimes you'll support for a full day, or it may just be a morning or afternoon session. You'll likely start most of your days with a fully formulated plan.... That will soon get completely derailed though... Pivoting when the circumstances call for it is a regular occurrence in child care! Creativity is key. Teaching young children allows for hands on arts and crafts, storytelling, exercise, and educational games. It’s important to keep things fresh and try new activities to keep attention spans engaged. Of course we work within the EYFS standards, but that doesn't stop you from engaging your creative flair and enthusiasm for learning. What you'll need A full and relevant Level 2 or above qualification within early years. (We can sometimes consider unqualified Educators, as long as they demonstrate the necessary qualities, values and enthusiasm for working within this environment. If you think you've got the right attitude and abilities, submit an application, who knows it might be the best thing you ever did. Nothing ventured nothing gained!)
