St Pauls Nursery School & Children’s Centre has created a new video featuring staff members sharing why they love working at their Ofsted ‘Outstanding’ setting.
In the video, team members describe St Pauls as “feeling like family” and “an incredible place to work,” sharing why many have built long-term careers at the nursery. Staff explain what makes working at St Pauls so special and rewarding.
The video highlights the supportive team culture, with one staff member explaining: “Feeling held and safe here means I can give my full self and my best self to the children.” St Pauls offers extensive professional development opportunities, with continuous learning, skill development and the freedom to bring personal passions into practice, such as Forest School training.
The nursery’s values-driven environment centres on emotional well-being, creativity and inclusivity, making the work truly meaningful. Staff enjoy working in beautiful outdoor spaces with extensive gardens, a fire pit and a children’s kitchen that make every day special. The strong sense of community connection is evident, with staff describing it as “a little village where we’re all looking after each other and taking care of one another.”
Career longevity is a hallmark of St Pauls, with staff staying and growing their careers because, as one team member puts it: “it doesn’t feel like work – it feels like stuff I care about.”
