Job Description

At Little Foxes, our team is at the heart of everything we do -- we consider them family. If you're looking for a nursery where you'll be supported, inspired, and truly valued, then Little Foxes is the place for you. We're always eager to welcome special people to join us. If you don't feel this is you, then this probably isn't the right role -- but if you do, read on!

What We're Looking For

? A warm, friendly presence that makes every child feel loved and special.

? A good sense of humour, especially when it comes to the quirky and sometimes confusing world of children's jokes.

? A touch of whimsy -- if a child asks you to be a princess, you'll happily become the best fairy tale princess they've ever met.

? Confidence to sing loudly and joyfully, even if you're a little off-key.

? A generous heart, ready to give warm hugs whenever needed.

? Sharp observation skills -- you can quickly count and keep track of many lively little ones on the move.

? You should be comfortable with the realities of childcare, including the occasional mysterious stains on your clothes and a keen sense of smell for those unexpected moments.

? Resilience in an environment that can sometimes look like a tornado's aftermath.

? The ability to pretend to eat playdough creations with enthusiasm (this skill develops over time).

? A strong memory for children's names, their families, pets, and favourite toys.

? Willingness to sit on furniture much smaller than you're used to.

? Patience to read long stories with frequent interruptions.

? A readiness to have fun and laugh a lot during your workday.

? Above all, a passion for feeling loved and making children and their families feel important.
