Welcome to the heart of Kido, where passion, ambition, and people are at the core of everything we do! While completing your teacher training you'll be working in one of the nurseries, being part of creating a safe and inspiring learning environment where every child thrives.
You'll be a team player ensuring that you and the team meet the unique needs of each child, collaborating with the team to plan, organise and execute engaging activities that align with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) standards for child learning and development. An ability to effectively communicate with parents, children and colleagues will set you apart and aid us in delivering the best experience possible.
With a hands-on approach and with great attention to detail, you'll deliver exceptional experiences throughout the children's learning journeys within our nursery. We believe in celebrating every child's unique journey, and you'll play a key role in assessing and recording their progress and achievements. By aligning to our systems of observation, you'll ensure no milestone goes unnoticed, and every achievement is celebrated.
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. This is just as important for our teams. Your insights and feedback will be valued as we constantly push the boundaries of excellence and reimagine what exceptional early years education really means.
What We're Looking For
To be eligible you must hold an undergraduate degree in any discipline. We're also looking for you to show a passion and some experience, personal or professional, working with children.
What's next?
If you're ready to seize the opportunity to join the Kido team apply today and we'll be in touch. You can expect an initial phone call with our recruitment team who will take you through the next stages.
There will be some forms to complete, initially, followed by a phone interview and then a face-to-face interview. If you're successful, we'll do some pre-employment checks as part of our Safer Recruitment process before you can start. This is a requirement from Ofsted and the NSPCC to help with safeguarding children.
