• Follow safeguarding, health & safety and nursery policies at all times
• Work collaboratively as part of a supportive staff team
What We’re Looking For
• Level 2 or Level 3 Early Years qualification (essential)
• Previous nursery or Early Years experience preferred
• A caring, reliable and professional approach
• Good understanding of EYFS and safeguarding practices
• Driver with access to own car (essential due to location)
• Able to commit to either full-time or part-time year-round hours
Why Apply Through ACR?

• Work within a warm and well-established nursery setting
