Remarkable Futures Start Here
Hello, I’m Joanne, the Nursery Manager at The Lindens. My team and I understand that children flourish in warm, nurturing environments that feel like home. We prioritise strong communication with our families and take great pride in building meaningful partnerships based on trust and collaboration.
Our Forest School play area encourages active, hands-on learning—where children can build dens, dig in the soil, and grow their own fruits and vegetables. With flexible spaces and tailored activities, we create welcoming environments that support babies, toddlers, and preschoolers as they grow, learn, and thrive.
Impact Lives, with a Schedule That Works for You
Storal’s Purpose: To give children healthy foundations in fantastic settings, helping them build the confidence and resilience that will set them up for success later in life.
How you’ll spend your time here
You’ll be helping to provide cover for the children as and when needed. This could be for periods of holiday, sickness, or even vacancy gaps. Sometimes you'll support for a full day, or it may just be a morning or afternoon session. You'll likely start most of your days with a fully formulated plan. That will soon get completely derailed though. Pivoting when the circumstances call for it is a regular occurrence in child care!
Creativity is key. Teaching young children allows for hands-on arts and crafts, storytelling, exercise, and educational games. It’s important to keep things fresh and try new activities to keep attention spans engaged. Of course we work within the EYFS standards, but that doesn't stop you from engaging your creative flair and enthusiasm for learning.
We’d love to talk to you if you have the following
- You’re a Level 2 or above qualified, Early Years Educator / Practitioner / Nursery Nurse or similar and you're looking for an Early Years Educator/Nursery Nurse/Early Years Practitioner role that allows you flexibility of working shifts around your other commitments.
- You enjoy supporting and encouraging the natural curiosity and excitement of young children and were born to teach and shape the future of our younger generations.
- You have a natural, nurturing, openness, a warm and positive outlook, and you care about learning and education standards in the UK.
- (We can sometimes consider unqualified Educators, so if you can demonstrate the necessary values and enthusiasm for working within this environment, submit an application.)
What you'll need
- A full and relevant Level 2 or above qualification within early years
- Experience as an Early Years Educator (Nursery Nurse/Practitioner) or having worked with children under the age of 5, is advantageous
- Knowledge and understanding of the EYFS is desirable
- Reflecting the Storal values around responsibility, openness and working together
