We put people before profit: work for a family of nurseries with heart.

“LEYF gave me the confidence and the teaching to go further in my job.” — Victoria, Room Manager

We’re the London Early Years Foundation, or LEYF Nurseries, a family of 40 nurseries. Our people love working for us because we focus on the child and their family, giving them the best start in life.

A bit about the role

“We work as a team. We work as a family.” — Zainab, Room Manager

You are passionate about helping children develop and learn. You will manage a team to create and implement daily activities that engage and educate children. You will collaborate closely with the management team and parents to build strong relationships and best practices.

All LEYF nurseries share a unique teaching model, but you will have the flexibility to be creative and adapt activities to how children learn best. Whether visiting the Science Museum, taking a bus to meet friends at another LEYF nursery, or baking with the nursery chef, it’s always about the children.

Requirements:

• The right to work in the UK
• Ability to lead a team within ratio guidelines and foster strong relationships
• Ability to safeguard and protect children
• A positive, adaptable, and friendly attitude
