At Little Peanuts, children are at the heart of everything we do. Our approach is shaped by our core values of Play, Nurture and Communication, The Curiosity Approach™, outdoor learning and our beautiful on-site Forest School. As room leader, you will help your team put these values into practice every day, ensuring that children feel safe, listened to, and excited to explore.

Supporting staff in using In the Moment Planning, building strong attachments with their key children and recognising teachable moments
Creating thoughtful provocations and invitations that inspire children’s curiosity and deep engagement
Ensuring high standards of care, including mindful routines, safe practice, and consistent approaches to well-being and co-regulation
Building strong partnerships with families, sharing information sensitively and celebrating each child’s achievements
Modelling high-quality language interactions and communication-friendly practice across your team
Promoting outdoor learning and ensuring children have daily opportunities for exploration in our garden and Forest School area
Leading room meetings, completing documentation, and supporting colleagues with observations, focus weeks and reviews
Support an ethos where children and staff take pride in their shared environment
About you

A passionate early years practitioner with strong leadership skills
Someone who truly understands child development and the importance of attachment, emotional well-being and co-regulation
Confident supporting colleagues and able to guide practice with clarity, positivity and respect
Skilled at creating calm, beautiful learning environments using natural and authentic resources
Committed to reflective practice, professional development and working as part of a supportive, friendly team
Warm, patient and responsive in your interactions with children, ensuring each one feels valued, understood and secure
Qualifications & Experience
Level 3 Early Years qualification (or above)
Experience working in an early years setting, ideally with leadership responsibilities
Strong understanding of the EYFS and child-centred practice
Why join us?
A supportive, welcoming team and a leadership ethos built on kindness and respect
Regular supervision, training and opportunities for professional development
Beautiful learning spaces, a thriving Forest School and a setting where staff well-being really matters
Provision for sick leave and emergency dependency leave with full pay
The chance to make a real difference to children’s early experiences
