Room Leaders are responsible for the overall running of their assigned playroom in a nursery or similar setting, for children in the service.
At a glance, their role includes delivering and maintaining high quality care that stimulates children and aids each child’s personal development. It also involves supervising other playroom staff, sharing professional knowledge to improve practices, and making sure all regulatory requirements are complied with in the setting. As a leader and manager, the Room Leader should not only build positive relationships with staff, but also with the parents and carers of the children. This ensures open communication, so everything operates smoothly and to a high standard throughout the playroom, including children’s education, care, and playtime.
