Most important of all, you will be part of a team who are aspirational for the children and their families and who do their absolute best to support them to have improved opportunities and experiences in life.

Jimbo's Community Nursery is unique in Leeds, as the mainstream nursery includes our Hawthorn Room, a specialist playroom for children with a range of additional needs including learning disability and autism.
