AnonyMouse_8469 Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 I need two practitioners- enthusiasm, maturity, understanding of children and a good sense of humour more important than qualifications- but if you have qualifications as well... These jobs come at a time when there are many new and exciting developments in the nursery. Both jobs promise the right person the opportunity to develop the rooms and fill them full of fun and learning. We are in purpose built premises and are excellently resourced with a large out door area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_8422 Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 Silly as it sounds watch out asking for mature-I have always put that on ads as I believe it is not just an age thing but I have been told if I do so I run the risk of falling foul of the Age Discrimination Act Mama Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_8469 Posted August 11, 2007 Author Share Posted August 11, 2007 whoops! ok can be young and frivolous as well! All I want is someone who can do the job, well, sensibly, on their own initiative, dynamically, politely, friendly, accurately, without bitching, whinging, whining, sickness and boyfriend/girlfriend/pet/parent problems. Oh and they need to laugh at my jokes in interview. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_1469 Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 I think using the word 'maturity' is fine.............you're asking for someone with a 'mature' sense of responsibility, rather than an older person??? So, yes, I think maturity is essential in someone caring for children..................so long as they also have the other attributes you're looking for!

Oh and they need to laugh at my jokes in interview. Just love it. Speaking as one whose sense of humour takes a bit of getting used to (so I'm told) I'd say if anyone laughed at my joke at the interview they'd be a shoo in. Equal ops policy permitting, of course.
