Nursery Nurse - Hornsey, Haringey - September 2025

A nurturing, well-regarded primary school in Hornsey seeks a warm and dedicated Nursery Nurse to join their thriving Early Years team from September 2025. This is a permanent Nursery Nurse role within a school rated Good by Ofsted, known for its inclusive ethos, child-centred approach, and genuine commitment to providing the highest quality early years care and education.

About the School

This Haringey primary school serves a wonderfully diverse local community and takes great pride in its Early Years provision. The nursery environment is carefully structured to balance purposeful learning with rich, imaginative play - supporting children's personal, social, and emotional development alongside early communication and literacy skills. Staff work collaboratively within a warm, professional team culture where every Nursery Nurse is valued as an essential contributor to children's earliest educational experiences. Parental engagement is a genuine strength, with strong family relationships built from the very first day.

What the School Offers
  • A well-resourced nursery environment with strong SLT and EYFS leadership support
  • Regular CPD and training opportunities specific to early years practice and child development
  • A collaborative, close-knit Early Years team with a genuinely supportive staff culture
  • Consistent safeguarding frameworks and clear behaviour guidance appropriate to nursery-age children
  • A school that values and retains its support staff, with opportunities for professional development over time
The Role

As a Nursery Nurse, you will work alongside the class teacher to deliver stimulating, age-appropriate activities that support children's early development across all areas of the EYFS framework. You will observe and contribute to assessments of individual children, support daily routines, maintain a safe and welcoming nursery environment, and build warm, trusting relationships with children and their families throughout the year.

What the School is Looking For

The ideal Nursery Nurse will hold a relevant childcare qualification - CACHE Level 3, BTEC National in Children's Care, or equivalent - and have meaningful hands on experience working with nursery-age children in a UK early years or school setting. Candidates should be proactive, patient, and passionate about early childhood development, with strong communication skills and a genuine commitment to safeguarding and child welfare.
