Outdoor Early Years

6 months ago


Sheffield, United Kingdom Sheffield Woodland Kindergarten Full time

Sheffield Woodland Kindergarten is a small early years' setting in the heart of Sheffield, located within Lynwood Gardens.

As we are fully outdoors, we pride ourselves on offering something a little different to our children and families. You don't necessarily need a forest school qualification to join our team, just a passion for outdoor learning in the early years. Lots of our staff have come from indoor nursery settings and have since fallen in love with our outdoor approach

We are looking for an early years practitioner to join our outdoor nursery. A level 3 forest school qualification can be offered alongside this role for a practitioner looking to gain this qualification.

To be considered for this position you must have:

- A relevant Early Years Qualification
- Up to date knowledge and experience of the EYFS
- A pair of good sturdy outdoor boots
- Have a good sense of humour, good communication skills, and will enjoy working as part of small but growing team
- Believe in a child-centred approach; observing, listening and supporting children’s thoughts, feelings and interests
- Value parent partnerships within your role and exploring ways we can involve parents in children’s learning and development
- Enjoy a good feast cooked in a mud kitchen - although our mud kitchen lacks a 5* food hygiene rating due to the mud, woodlice and worms the chefs can certainly whip you up a creative dish
- Use your imagination to become a tyrannosaurus in the morning and be zooming in a rocket to the moon by the afternoon.
- Are not afraid of the sun, wind, rain and other weathers, instead you can splash in the puddles, dance in the rain, sing in the sun and twirl in the wind.

**If you're looking for a new adventure in early years, this could be it.**

We value when our employees work extra and therefore offer an overtime rate for when employees work an extra day to help cover annual leave or sickness.

We support and encourage our employees to further their skills and knowledge, offering unlimited online training on Noodle Now, as well as the opportunity to complete training provided by Sheffield City Council Early Years' team. We will also offer a Level 3 Forest School Qualification alongside this position for someone interested in achieving this. We believe our staff will thrive when supported to achieve their personal goals, thus we will always consider supporting our employees to participate in training through other providers also.
