Job Description

StaffDirect is seeking a dedicated and caring Nursery Nurse to join a highly respected early years setting in the heart of Brighton BN1. This is an excellent opportunity for a qualified professional looking for an immediate start in a role that makes a real difference. We are a leading temporary staffing agency with deep roots in the South East, and we understand the specific needs of local nurseries and their staff. Our client is a well-regarded nursery committed to providing outstanding care and education, and they need a reliable individual to support their team during a period of high demand.

This Nursery Nurse position is perfect for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, child-centred environment. You will be working within a supportive team, following the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework to deliver engaging activities and ensure the safety and development of children aged 0-5 years. By registering with StaffDirect, you gain access to not just this role but a wide portfolio of immediate start jobs across Brighton and the wider region. We pride ourselves on a straightforward, supportive registration process that gets you working quickly with reputable employers.

Key Responsibilities

  • Plan, prepare, and deliver a range of age-appropriate, stimulating activities that promote all areas of early years development, in line with the EYFS framework.
  • Provide high-quality care, including supporting children with feeding, toileting, and personal hygiene, while maintaining a safe, clean, and hygienic environment at all times.
  • Observe, monitor, and assess children's progress, keeping detailed and accurate records to share with parents, carers, and other professionals during key meetings.
  • Work collaboratively as part of a nursery team, building positive and professional relationships with colleagues, parents, and external agencies to ensure the highest standard of holistic care.
  • Adhere rigorously to all safeguarding, health, safety, and welfare policies, acting as a key person for a small group of children and providing them with emotional security and consistent support.

What We're Looking For

  • A recognised Level 2 or Level 3 qualification in Early Years Education and Childcare (NNEB, CACHE, NVQ, or equivalent) is essential.
  • Substantial, proven experience working as a Nursery Nurse or Early Years Practitioner within a UK nursery or early years setting.
  • A thorough, up-to-date knowledge of the EYFS framework and a genuine passion for contributing to children's learning and development.
  • Excellent communication skills, patience, empathy, and a valid, enhanced DBS certificate registered on the update service (or willingness to obtain one).
