Hours: 40 hours per week, worked over 4 days
Start Date: February 2027

A nursery that cares about you too!
At Smallville Nursery, we believe that happy children need happy, supported staff.
We're an award-winning nursery set in idyllic surroundings, and we're looking for a Level 3 qualified practitioner to join our friendly team.
But this role isn't just about what we need from you. We want you to enjoy coming to work and feel valued while you're here.
What we offer
- A 4-day working week – work your 40 hours across four days and have one Wellbeing Day off every week
- Mental health support – access to professional mental-health support and therapists when you need them
- Employee discounts – access to savings across hundreds of shops, retailers, restaurants, days out and more
- Company pension
- Company events
- A supportive, friendly team
- A workplace where your wellbeing and work-life balance genuinely matter
Your 'Wellbeing Day' could be used however you choose - whether that's spending time with family, getting life admin done, pursuing hobbies or simply having a day to recharge.
What makes Smallville different?
We believe in creating an environment where children can learn through play, follow their interests and enjoy being curious. We want our practitioners to have the same opportunity to enjoy their work.
There will be messy play, outdoor adventures, pirate ships, pretend tea parties, plenty of singing and probably some unexplained substances on your clothing by the end of the day!
Most importantly, you'll have the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with children and their families and be part of a team that genuinely values what you do.
We'd love to hear from you if you have:
A Level 3 childcare qualification
Paediatric First Aid (desirable)
Experience with In the Moment Planning (desirable)
At least 1 year's childcare experience (preferred)
If you're looking for a nursery where your wellbeing is taken seriously and you're given a proper day to recharge every week, we'd love to hear from you.
