Deputy Nursery Manager
Job Description
We are recruiting on behalf of a nursery just a short walk from Hammersmith station. This purpose-built, 92-place nursery offers an exceptional working environment for passionate Early Years Educators looking to thrive in a child-centred, inspiring setting.
Set within the tranquil Frank Banfield Park, the nursery boasts extensive outdoor space, including multiple gardens specifically designed for different age groups - from babies as young as three months to children up to five years old. These tailored spaces allow children to explore safely and develop their natural curiosity through play and discovery.
Inside, the nursery features four spacious, well-equipped rooms that support key areas of development: sensory exploration, gross motor skills, communication and language, independence, and social interaction.
The nursery's mission is to provide a warm, nurturing, and inclusive environment where each child is encouraged to grow confidently as an individual. There is a strong emphasis on building resilience, fostering a love for learning, and supporting children to try new things and reach their full potential.
