Work with us
Charnwood is a long-established early years setting and Christian charity serving children and families in our local community. With a team of around 50 staff, we operate on a term-time-only basis and are committed to providing a warm, inclusive, and stimulating environment where children feel valued, supported, and inspired to reach their full potential.
Our Christian values are at the heart of everything we do. We believe that every individual is unique and has inherent worth, dignity, promise, and purpose. These principles guide our relationships with children, families, colleagues, and partners, creating a culture built on kindness, respect, and compassion.
The organisation is led by an experienced Senior Leadership Team and governed by a dedicated Board of Trustees, ensuring that Charnwood remains focused on its mission and continues to meet the needs of the community it serves.
Joining Charnwood means becoming part of a caring and supportive team that is passionate about making a meaningful difference in the lives of children and families every day.
