About Our Nursery
Our beautiful nursery is based in a three-story Victorian townhouse, set back from the road and opposite the beautiful York Racecourse. Buses run frequently in and out of the city, with a bus stop directly outside the nursery. We also have ample parent parking available on-site, with additional convenient parking options for staff located just a short distance from the nursery. One of the most popular aspects of our nursery is our Forest School, located just 10 minutes away in a peaceful woodland environment, offers children the chance to explore and learn in a dedicated outdoor classroom surrounded by nature. This is where our ethos comes to life and the children can engage in Forest School classes, planting organic fruit and vegetables which can be eaten once they’ve grown.

As a valued member of our team, you’ll:
- Be responsible for providing a high standard of care and ensuring the safety and wellbeing of the children during transport. Our Forest School is a fun, outdoor learning environment that encourages children to explore, learn and grow.
- Carry out daily vehicle safety checks and report any issues promptly.
- Ensure children are safely seated and appropriately secured for every journey.
