nursery and preschool setting here in Burley in Wharfedale. We provide early years care and education for children aged
2-4 years of age. Our setting is open 50 weeks a year between
the hours of 7:30 and 6:00pm. Staff work varied shift patterns
to support our children’s needs. We are a child -led setting that follows children's interests,
places a high priority on wellbeing and aims to provide
magical moments all day long. We are looking for passionate individuals who wish to make a
difference to a child’s day. We are keen to meet people who are hardworking, punctual, flexible and willing to jump into play routines with our children.

Practitioners will be supported to develop enabling environments in both our indoor and outdoor areas, and as a setting, we will help the right person to build confidence, prepare invitations to play and become an outstanding practitioner.

Employer Description:
At Ghyll Royd Pre-School and Nursery we provide a personalised, dynamic and rich classroom and outdoor environment for children 2 – 4 years. Early learning at GRS is promoted through carefully selected activities and continuous availability of materials and resources that promote confidence, independence, and curiosity for the children in our care. The children are encouraged to use both indoors and our extensive outdoors and are supported to act independently, engage spontaneously in self-selected and teacher-led activities in order to lead their own learning and actively fulfil their potential. Strong relationships are at the heart of everything we do at GRS and are readily formed in our positive family atmosphere. We believe that at GRS we are in a unique and privileged position to help and shape each and every child in our care.
