Banana Moon Harbury is a small family‑run nursery in the village of Harbury, Warwickshire.

We pride ourselves on seeing everything from the parents’ point of view. We are looking for individuals who have a caring and sensitive nature to cater for the children's needs and help to develop them through play.

You must be happy to go home looking mucky; be able to be a superhero on request; be able to create a dinosaur out of junk; have a warm smile that makes every child special; and ultimately be prepared to have a lot of fun and laughter. We have stripped back a lot of the paperwork associated with nursery roles and instead focus on supporting children's development gaps through inspired play and their interests.

• A full and relevant level 2 or above qualification as defined by the Children's Workforce Development Council.
• At least 12 months experience in a nursery.
• Be able to commute to Harbury.
• Ideally full time (40 hours over 4 or 5 days) but will consider 30+ hours.
• Clean DBS.
• A sound knowledge of child development for children from birth to five years.
• Knowledge and understanding of the statutory framework for the EYFS and the inspection processes of regulatory bodies.
• Knowledge of Child Protection procedures.
• Awareness of purposeful planning, observation and assessment.
• Not be afraid to be silly and have fun!

• Discount on childcare.
• Loyalty Bonus.
• Mobile phone contract.
• Birthday as an additional day of holiday.
• Increasing holiday allowance with length of service.
