Who Are We Looking For?
We are seeking an inspirational and forward-thinking Room Leader to join us at the start of an exciting new chapter as we launch Little Grapes Nursery this Autumn, an extension of Kerem School.
As one of the founding members of staff, you will have a unique opportunity to help establish a warm, stimulating and joyful Jewish environment in which our youngest children can thrive. Working closely with the Nursery Manager, you will help develop the provision, build strong relationships with families, and ensure that the nursery reflects the same high standards, care and Jewish values that characterise Kerem School.
Little Grapes is an independent Modern Orthodox nursery for children aged 9 months to 3 years, offering a stimulating, challenging, and well-rounded secular and Jewish education within a warm and supportive community.
Why Join Little Grapes?
- The opportunity to lead the launch and shape a brand-new nursery from the ground up.
- A supportive leadership team working closely with you throughout the setup and ongoing development.
- A well-designed early years environment with high-quality resources and facilities.
- A strong focus on staff wellbeing and a positive, caring workplace culture.
- A community-focused ethos with strong family engagement at its heart.
- A healthy work-life balance, with flexible working options where possible, plus free lunches provided.
We welcome applications from individuals of all backgrounds, as we value diversity and believe it strengthens our community.
If you are an outstanding early years leader with a passion for nurturing and inspiring children aged 9 months to 3 years, and uphold high standards across all aspects of nursery life, we look forward to hearing from you.
