As Nursery Manager, you’ll oversee the 2-year-old provision and Cocoon (SEN unit) and support transitions into the 3/4-year-old nursery.

Leadership experience and familiarity with OFTSED requirements are advantageous.

You will be supported in creating a safe, engaging environment both indoors and outdoors and will take a proactive role in safeguarding and child welfare, maintaining health and safety standards, administering basic first aid, and ensuring our nursery adheres to all EYFS regulations.
