Job Description

At Munchkins, we believe that every child deserves a fun and inspiring place to learn--and so does every team member! We're a family-run nursery where we support both children and staff to thrive. Our mission is simple: to inspire young minds through play and exploration, all while creating a warm, supportive environment for our team to grow.

Forget stiff, formal interviews--we'd much rather get to know the real you over a cuppa and a chat!

We're looking for an enthusiastic, caring, and creative individual to join our growing team. If you're passionate about early years education and thrive in a fun, ever-changing environment, we think you'll love it here.
