Join Puddleduck Nursery

Do you know how to tell stories that people genuinely care about?

Can you turn everyday moments into meaningful content that builds trust, engagement, and community?

Do you understand how to create social media that not only looks great, but helps parents feel connected, informed, and confident in choosing a nursery for their child?

Are you equally comfortable developing creative campaigns, capturing authentic moments, analysing performance, and building a brand that families love?

If you bring a blend of creativity, commercial awareness, and community-first thinking, Puddleduck Nursery could be the perfect place for you.

About Puddleduck Nursery

Puddleduck Nursery is a family run business that has been in operation for 30years, we believe childhood should be filled with curiosity, discovery, confidence, and joy. Our nursery provides a safe, nurturing, and inspiring environment where children can learn, explore, and thrive through play, meaningful experiences, and strong relationships.

Every day is different. From messy play and outdoor adventures to celebrations, seasonal events, learning milestones, and family engagement activities, there are countless stories waiting to be shared.

We're now looking for a Head of social media & Community to lead how we tell those stories and build a trusted and engaging nursery brand for our region.

About the Role

You'll develop and execute a social media strategy that showcases the real life of our nursery, highlights the incredible work of our team, celebrates children's achievements, and strengthens our connection with current and prospective families.

You'll lead content planning, oversee creative direction, manage community engagement, and build a social presence that reflects our values, culture, and commitment to exceptional childcare.
