One of the nursery's most attractive features, and extremely popular with the children, is the wonderful outside space and gardens, fully enclosed and secure for the children to enjoy. The nursery gardens offer plentiful opportunities for outdoor play and learning, which is a key aspect of Acorn's ethos. Pre-school children have regular Forest School sessions in the nursery garden.


The building itself was formerly the village primary school and, whilst retaining the character of the original architecture, it has been sympathetically refurbished to provide a warm and homely environment. The rooms provide light and spacious play areas, with a child-centred focus.


The role will ideally be 40 hours per week, other options maybe available please contact to dsicsuss


Monday to Friday working between 0730 and 18.15.


We're proud to be one of the leading childcare providers in Milton Keynes, Northampton and Bedford with over 30 years' experience who specialise in nature pedagogy and promoting the professional development of our employees. We believe that childcare needs a personal touch, and our nurseries and out-of-school clubs offer flexibility and individuality with a homely feel. As a not-for-profit organisation, we place our children's well-being at the heart of our work.


We very much welcome candidates that are looking to progress their personal career development due to future opportunities.


The ideal candidate will be passionate, motivated and enthusiastic about outdoor learning and creative play, as well as a good working knowledge and practice of the EYFS and safeguarding procedures.


Apply today or get in touch with our HR team for an information chat on: 01908 510309 or email: hr@acornearlyyears.org.uk


Successful applicants must be able to provide 'right to work in the UK' documentation, provide two satisfactory references and undertake an enhanced DBS check prior commencing employment.
