Dulwich Wood Nursery is a fun, happy and creative school. We have AMAZING gardens, a focus on outdoor learning, rich well organised indoor provision and a very special team of staff.

We are a maintained Nursery, and are passionately committed to a play-based child-centred approach to learning. Our planning is adapted ‘in the moment’ in response to children’s explorations and fascinations.

'Children enjoy coming to this nurturing and purposeful nursery. From the moment they arrive, they are welcomed into calm, well-organised classrooms. Children settle quickly and learn to play and learn alongside one another.’ Ofsted 2026 

We are looking for a talented and motivated Early Years Educator to join our very friendly and supportive team in January 2027. Are you the kind, nurturing and creative educator that we are looking for?

We are committed to continued professional development and have a highly motivated and supportive Leadership Team.

Our Nursery is a 2-minute walk from Sydenham Hill train station and just 15 minutes’ walk from Gipsy Hill station.

We are looking for someone who:

  • Is creative, patient, resourceful, energetic and fun!

  • Has experience of working with children (ideally in a nursery or primary school)

  • Has a level 3 childcare qualification or equivalent qualification

  • Has GCSE English and Maths (Grade C+) or equivalent

  • Is keen to develop professionally and learn with and from others

  • Has excellent communication skills

  • Is a positive person with a ‘can-do’ attitude

This post is a ‘term time only’ contract. Working hours: 36 per week.
