Our carefully designed spaces—from the calming Tree Room to our exciting Cottage and Construction areas—spark creativity, imagination, and a love of learning.

With dedicated gardens for each age group, our children spend their days immersed in nature, exploring, discovering, and engaging in hands-on learning through play.

Our warm and welcoming atmosphere, combined with a wide range of thoughtfully selected resources, creates a home-from-home where every child feels safe, happy, and valued.

Syston’s Purpose

To give children healthy foundations in fantastic settings, helping them build the confidence and resilience that will set them up for success later in life.

How you’ll spend your time here

You’ll be helping to provide cover for the children as and when needed. This could be for periods of holiday, sickness, or vacancy gaps. Sometimes you\'ll support for a full day, or it may just be a morning or afternoon session. You\'ll likely start most of your days with a fully formulated plan. That will soon get derailed though. Pivoting when the circumstances call for it is a regular occurrence in child care!

Creativity is key. Teaching young children allows for hands-on art and crafts, storytelling, exercise, and educational games. It’s important to keep things fresh and try new activities to keep attention spans engaged. Of course we work within the EYFS standards, but that doesn\'t stop you from engaging your creative flair and enthusiasm for learning.
