What you will be doing

- Collaborate with colleagues to establish and maintain a constructive, cheerful, and secure environment on a daily basis.
What we can offer you
Our playground could be your workplace. In exchange for your commitment, enthusiasm and passion you will get a lot in return, not just from the children, but from us also! kinderzimmer UK has a market-leading benefits package which is tailored to the individual employee's needs.
The benefits package includes but is not limited to;

Who you are
At kinderzimmer UK, we value individuality in all aspects of our team, including the pedagogical approach you take as an educator. We encourage broad and diverse adult thinkers, as we feel this allows us to accommodate a greater spectrum of children.
Rather than tell you what we are looking for, we prefer to find out more about you and encourage your pedagogical approach. With this information, we can then match you to the nursery room where your approach is not only welcomed, but given the room to flourish.
Ask yourself;
- Are you a jump right in and get involved type of person?
- Or, would you rather take one step back, set out the work table with resources, and leave the children to explore independently?
- Or maybe you prefer to take two or three steps back, wanting to let the child choose his/her own task, and carry it out from start to finish unhindered by adult intervention?
Regardless of what your approach is, we are keen to find out about you!
