Lead Early Years Practitioner

The Lead Early Years Practitioner at the YMCA Fairthorne Group plays a supernumerary leadership role within the nursery, focusing on strengthening practice across the entire setting rather than just one room. This position involves observing children, identifying additional needs, and coaching colleagues to ensure consistent, high-quality care and inclusion for all children. The role requires working directly with children, families, and staff to support development, safeguarding, and nursery improvement priorities.
