We are looking to recruit a highly enthusiastic individual who has experience of working within an Early Years day care setting to come and join our fantastic team here at Hunts Cross Nursery as an Early Years Practitioner. Our Nursery operates between 8am-6pm on a term time only basis. Candidates must be able to work 35 hours per week within these operational hours. Full Job description available on request.
Hunts Cross Nursery is committed to safeguarding children and promoting children’s welfare and expects all staff, governors, volunteers, and visitors to share this commitment and maintain a vigilant and safe environment.
It is a criminal offence for someone who is disqualified to knowingly seek or accept work (or continue to work) in a ‘regulated activity position’. Therefore, in addition to interviews applicants will be required to undertake pre-employment checks which will include References, Health, Right to Work in UK, Overseas Criminal Checks, Enhanced DBS and Barred List checks and if applicable a check under the DfE Childcare Disqualification Regulations 2009.
Keeping Children Safe in Education states the need for schools to conduct an “online search as part of their due diligence on the shortlisted candidates.” The purpose of the online check is to help identify any incidents or issues that have happened, and are publicly available online, which the school / setting might want to explore with the applicant at interview, to establish their suitability to work with children. The online check forms are one part of the school’s pre-employment checks process.
All candidates should hold a Level 3 or equivalent in a relevant childcare qualification. Candidates should have some experience of working with children aged between 0-5 years in a day care or nursery setting and have a range of suitable skills which will work well with and strengthen our busy nursery team. Our Nursery operates between 8am-6pm term time only. Full Person Specification available on request.
