Hi, I’m Amy, the Nursery Manager at Shepshed.

I’ve proudly been part of the Shepshed team for my entire 18-year childcare career—starting as a Nursery Nurse in the baby room and now, for the past 4 years, having the privilege of leading this incredible team as Manager.

My wonderful team is truly dedicated to delivering the highest quality of care and education, supporting each and every child to reach their full potential.

Our beautiful building and extensive gardens provide the perfect backdrop for a rich, engaging learning experience. With dedicated spaces for all age groups—including a unique outdoor classroom, planting areas, and opportunities for wildlife exploration—we nurture curiosity and spark imagination every day. Our children explore inspiring environments including our baking room, cosy story space, a home corner and large construction area.

Our newly refurbished baby room offers a calm, cosy, and nurturing space where our caring team follows each baby’s individual routine, creating a home-from-home environment right from the start.

You enjoy supporting and encouraging the natural curiosity and excitement of young children and were born to teach and shape the future of our younger generations.

(We can sometimes consider unqualified Educators, so if you can demonstrate the necessary values and enthusiasm for working within this environment, submit an application. Nothing ventured nothing gained).

You’ll be helping to provide cover for the children as and when needed. This could be for periods of holiday, sickness, or even vacancy gaps. Sometimes you'll support for a full day, or it may just be a morning or afternoon session.
