Do you believe childhood should be spent exploring, discovering and learning through real experiences?

We're recruiting on behalf of a highly regarded early years setting in Godalming seeking a passionate Level 2 or Level 3 Early Years Practitioner to join their nurturing and child-centred team.

This is an opportunity to work in a setting where children spend significant time outdoors, curiosity is encouraged and practitioners are supported to develop their careers whilst maintaining a healthy work-life balance.

  * Building strong relationships with children and families

  * Promoting children's wellbeing, confidence and independence

  * Contributing to a safe, nurturing and inclusive environment

  * Supporting outdoor learning opportunities and exploration

  * Holds a full and relevant Level 2 or Level 3 qualification

  * Has experience within an Early Years setting

  * Is passionate about child-centred learning

  * Enjoys spending time outdoors with children

  * Brings warmth, energy and positivity to their work

  * Is committed to safeguarding and high-quality practice

Most importantly, we're looking for someone who genuinely enjoys helping children learn, grow and thrive.

What's On Offer?

✔ Salary up to £29,000 depending on qualifications and experience

✔ Full-time role across a typical 4-day working week

✔ 28 days holiday including bank holidays (pro rata)
