At kinderzimmer UK, we value individuality in all aspects of our team, including the pedagogical approach you take as an educator. We encourage broad and diverse adult thinkers, as we feel this allows us to accommodate a greater spectrum of children.

We encourage all applicants to ask themselves:

Are you a jump right in and get involved type of person?
Or would you rather take one step back, set out the worktable with resources, and leave the children to explore independently?
Or maybe you prefer to take two or three steps back, wanting to let the child choose his/her own task, and carry it out from start to finish unhindered by adult intervention?

Regardless of what your approach is, we are keen to find out about you!
