Nursery Practitioner - Leighton Buzzard
Location: Leighton Buzzard
Start Date: September 2025
Hours: Flexible between 8am - 6pm
Salary: Dependent on experience and qualifications

Do you love the great outdoors just as much as creative play inside? Whether it's climbing, balancing, painting, or leaf rubbing - if you're ready to support young children in a fun, hands-on learning environment, this could be the perfect role for you.

Aspire People is working with a dynamic nursery setting in Leighton Buzzard, which caters to children aged 3 months to 5 years, including those with suspected SEND needs. This setting offers a wonderful mix of indoor and outdoor learning - from balancing beams and climbing walls to stacking number cubes and exploring nature through creative play.

We're looking for a passionate and energetic Nursery Practitioner to join a team that's committed to nurturing curiosity and building strong educational foundations.

What You'll Be Doing:
* Supporting children in their early years development, learning, and play
* Encouraging creativity, physical development, and sensory exploration
* Engaging in both structured and free-flow outdoor and indoor activities
* Contributing to a safe, inclusive, and stimulating environment
* Working closely with colleagues and parents to support each child's needs

About You:
We're looking for someone who is:
* Level 2 or Level 3 qualified in Early Years or Childcare
* Passionate about early childhood education and outdoor learning
* Proactive, adaptable, and a supportive team player
* Committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children
* Keen to continue growing through ongoing training and professional development

Experience in a nursery or early years setting is preferred, but we welcome newly qualified practitioners looking for their first role.
