A different kind of early years role
At KatieB Kids, we are not just a nursery.
We are a daytime family, rooted in relationships, curiosity and care.
Our work is guided by Let’s Nurture Futures™, a relationship-led, research-informed approach that brings together connection, play, wellbeing and learning.
We believe childhood should be joyful, meaningful and protected.
And we are looking for educators who believe that too.
The role
As an educator at KatieB Kids, you will:
- Build strong, meaningful relationships with children and families
- Support children through play, curiosity and exploration
- Observe, listen and respond to children’s ideas and emotions
- Create environments that invite learning and discovery
- Work as part of a reflective, supportive and professional team
This is not a “tick-box” role.
You will be trusted to think, reflect and bring your full self to your practice.
What we are looking for
We are looking for someone who:
- Values relationships as the foundation of learning
- Is warm, emotionally available and responsive with children
- Is curious, reflective and open to learning
- Can work collaboratively and contribute to a strong team culture
- Understands (or is willing to learn about) child development and early years practice
- Believes in inclusion, belonging and seeing every child as an individual
Experience and qualifications are important, but who you are matters just as much as what you know.
What makes KatieB Kids different
We have created a nursery where both children and educators thrive.
You will be part of a setting that:
- Values connection over control
- Supports professional thinking, not just routines
- Invests in training, reflection and development
- Encourages individuality — no uniforms required
- Creates a culture of psychological safety and support
- Works in true partnership with families
Our commitment to you
We know that to care for children well, we must care for our team.
We offer:
- A supportive, welcoming team environment
- Opportunities for professional growth and development
- Wellbeing support, including a mental health first aider
- A strong focus on work-life balance
- Regular reflection and coaching
- A beautiful, inspiring working environment
Who this role is for
This role is for you if you:
- Want to feel proud of the work you do
- Want to be part of something meaningful
- Want to grow, not just “do a job”
- Want to work in a place where your voice is heard
