About Us and the Role

Barford St. Peter's Pre-school is a welcoming setting in the heart of Barford, a village with a strong sense of community. We provide an inspiring environment where 3 and 4 olds can play, learn and grow. As an integral part of the primary school, our children enjoy shared events and services and join the school children for lunch each day.

We are looking for a kind, enthusiastic and reliable Play Worker to join our team. You will help create a safe, stimulating and inclusive environment, supporting children's play, friendships and independence. Working alongside colleagues, you will prepare engaging activities, respond to children's interests and support daily routines, helping every child feel valued and included.

Our children love exploring outdoors. The school's forest school area, kitchen garden and resident chickens provide wonderful opportunities for discovery, creativity and hands-on learning. We celebrate different cultures and festivals and help children develop kindness, respect and care for others.

We offer a friendly, supportive team and value the contribution of every member of staff. Staff wellbeing is important to us, with regular opportunities to discuss support and wellbeing throughout the year.

What We Are Looking For

The successful candidate will have a caring, patient approach and a passion for working with young children. You will understand how children learn through play and be familiar with the Early Years Foundation Stage. You will be able to support children's individual needs, encourage positive behaviour and maintain a safe, well-organised environment. Good communication, a positive work ethic and the ability to use your initiative are essential, alongside a willingness to contribute ideas and work collaboratively. You will build warm, professional relationships with children, families and colleagues and recognise the importance of safeguarding and confidentiality.

Barford St. Peter's is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and adults and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. This post is subject to an enhanced DBS disclosure.
