Summary
Our fantastic Staff Day Nursery is based in the grounds of Kingston Hospital and provides day care for children, aged 3 months to 4 years, whose parents/carers are employed by Kingston Hospital NHS Foundation Trust. Please ensure that you have read the job description and person specification and that your supporting statement reflects these, as your application will be assessed and scored against these criteria. If this raises a smile and you can say yes to most of these questions, you might be just the person we are looking for! Do you possess the magic and sparkle that makes every child feel special? Can you pretend to be a cat or a Prince at the drop of a hat, while eating a birthday cake made of mud? Can you read a story and sing in front of a varied audience big or small? Can you wipe a nose, give a cuddle and clean a table whilst helping a little person put on their slippers? Would you be happy to be seen in public wearing playdough, lunch, slime, cornflour, paint, mud or the unknown on your uniform? Do you enjoy reading The Gruffalo with the assistance of numerous little people who quiz you about every sentence? Would you enjoy exploring our local environment with the children, which may include getting wet and muddy? Do you have a heightened sense of smell that can seek out a smelly nappy at 20 paces and a cast iron tummy that can manage the whiff when changing it? Do you have the ability to count small, fast moving little people? If this sounds like the perfect job for you, we look forward to receiving your application.
