We are looking for qualified Nursery Practitioners (Level 3), for our well-established family-run nursery in Pilrig, Edinburgh.
We’re rated 9.8 out of 10 by parents on Day Nurseries with most recent reviews saying things like “We have been so happy with our daughter's experience at Pilrig Children's nursery. It's such a warm and welcoming environment, and all the staff are really friendly and knowledgeable” and “Lovely staff, so kind and helpful, had an amazing experience with the nursery!”.
We are dedicated to creating a safe, nurturing and stimulating environment where we bring out the best in our children to create a much stronger and confident child ready to face the world. Our spacious and sunny playrooms open out on to a large garden enabling smooth free-flow indoors and outdoors play for children of all ages.
As Nursery Practitioner, you’ll contribute to room planning which will include setting up the room for the day ahead, preparing creative and learning activities for the children, interacting effectively with them and liaising professionally with parents and colleagues.

In return, you can expect an industry-leading salary, plus excellent benefits including:
* Disclosure Scotland applications and renewals paid for by us
* Unlimited development and training opportunities provided and paid for by us
