NURSERY MANAGER - STONY STRATFORD

Full Time - 40 Hours per week Monday - Friday - Shift patterns between 07:15-08:30

We’re looking for an exceptional Nursery Manager to lead our welcoming and experienced team at our beautiful nursery in Stony Stratford. Our setting supports up to 40 children and is thoughtfully designed with two spacious indoor play areas and direct access to two exciting outdoor learning environments.

At Acorn Early Years, we are proud to deliver high-quality, affordable childcare that puts children before profit. As a social enterprise with over 35 years’ experience, we are passionate about nature-based learning, ethical practice, and professional development—and we’re proud to have been named Nursery World Nursery Group of the Year 2025.

Situated on the site of Elizabeth House, in Vicarage Road, Stony Stratford. Our nursery provides high quality, affordable childcare and early years education for the local community, in a building which has been completely refurbished and extended, with two spacious play areas indoors, with direct access to three outdoor play areas.

We offer full and part-time care for up to 40 children from the age of four months to four years, and are open from 7.30am to 6.15pm, Monday to Friday, all year round.

Acorn places a strong emphasis on outdoor play and learning, and the children will have the opportunity to be outdoors at some point every day, whatever the weather. Included in our fees are regular Forest School sessions; these exciting educational experiences are suitable for pre-schoolers and are delivered by fully trained forest school leaders and offer an innovative approach to outdoor play.

Regular visits to Elizabeth House Retirement Village:

The nursery has a great relationship with our neighbours at Elizabeth House and the residents in the retirement apartments. Twice a month The Squirrels visit Elizabeth House for an afternoon of fun, games and laughter. The interaction for all parties is invaluable and the children’s visit is always eagerly anticipated by the residents.

We also take full advantage of our lovely setting, taking the children on regular walks in the town and to the numerous parks Stony Stratford has to offer. Local residents often see our large “Buggy Bus” around the town as we take regular trips to the local library. Enjoying the library from an early age is a great way for children to embrace the fun of reading.

We work closely with the community and often become involved with Town events and use the local amenities and surrounding area.

About the Role

This is a fantastic opportunity for an inspirational and values-driven leader to shape a unique nursery environment, with a strong focus on outdoor learning and forest school principles. We are committed to creating an inclusive environment where every child, family and colleague feels valued, respected and able to thrive.
