The role of Housekeeper…

Welcome to the heart of Kido, where passion, ambition, and people are at the core of everything we do! As the Nursery Housekeeper, you'll be more than a housekeeper; you'll be an ambassador for our values, and a gatekeeper for our vibrant culture.

Cleanliness and hygiene will be at the forefront of your approach, ensuring clean surfaces, items, floors and laundry is done. Tidiness is also key, ensuring bins are emptied and belongings are organised.

It’s not just deep within the nursery; the front-of-house area is where we make the first impression. To ensure it’s inviting and welcoming for all, you’ll arrange fresh flowers, stow away shoes, tidy leaflets and tables, and hang up coats. Your efforts will be paramount to a space where children can flourish, parents find comfort and the whole team excel. You’ll play a key role in creating an environment that reflects our commitment to excellence in early years.

We take pride in creating a nurturing environment that caters to individual needs, acknowledging the diversity of each child's background, culture, disabilities, and medical history. With great attention to detail, you'll ensure our nursery remains a sanctuary where every child can flourish and grow.
