Job Description

Wanted: Dynamic Nursery Educator Who Treats Playtime Like an Art Form (32-40 hours), qualified Level 3 with experience and is in the North Tyneside Area.

Are you the type of person who believes that every little giggle is a symphony? Do you think the "terrible twos" are just a rumour, and snack time is an opportunity to teach toddlers the art of sharing (and maybe even the subtle flavours of organic strawberries)? If you're nodding along, read on.

The Job:

We're seeking a Nursery Educator with a Level 3 or higher qualification, who brings passion, patience, and just the right amount of creative chaos to our young learners. Your role will be to turn our nursery into a wonderland of growth, imagination, and resilience. You'll be the ringleader of joyful learning, guiding little minds through first words, first steps, and the occasional epic crayon mural.

What You'll Do:

Invent daily adventures: Story time, crafts, nature exploration, and the occasional cardboard castle siege--each day should feel like the best day ever. Engage and nurture: Think of every interaction as a chance to build trust, empathy, and a love for discovery. Encourage mini Picassos and future Einsteins: Because finger paint and puzzles aren't just for fun--they're the foundation for lifelong curiosity. Handle the unexpected*: Diaper disasters? A minor finger painting rebellion? You're cool, calm, and ready to roll with it.
Empower young personalities: Every child is a bundle of quirks and qualities. You'll help them shine and encourage parents to celebrate them too.

Who You Are:

Boundlessly energetic: You have the stamina to run a marathon, even if it's just around a playroom. Expert communicator: Baby babble, toddler tantrums, and parent updates--you speak them all fluently. Quick on your feet: With reflexes that rival a ninja, you can handle whatever a toddler throws your way (literally). Patient and nurturing: You know that tears happen, and you're there to soothe, cuddle, and cheer them up. Passionately curious: You're as eager to learn from children as you are to teach them. For you, every day is a chance to learn something new.

This may not be the role for you if:

You're content to make the same diwali lamps and Christmas cards each year You're someone who can't live without a photocopier Your idea of inclusion is a corner in a room You don't have a warm, smiling face You're happy to leave your setting without a thought for the next day You won't wear 'dress up' with pride

What We Offer:

A supportive team that celebrates laughter, kindness, and creativity in equal measure. Competitive pay, because your talents deserve to be rewarded. Endless opportunities to make a difference in young lives and experience the pure joy that only children can bring.
If you're ready to be the magic behind a child's smile, to turn learning into the best adventure ever, and to join a team that's as passionate about childhood as you are--apply now. Let's make some memories, one giggle at a time!

This role also comes with the opportunity for professional growth within our company, we progression to room leaders and deputy manager if you are ready to take on this challenge. Our Pay varies based on qualifications and experience.
