Hi Everyone

Community Nursery Nurses also with community nurseing teams providing support to children and parents in their own homes.

I know many community nursery nurses have gone to to their hospital play specialist training, as these skills are really very useful in the type of job, and their roles have developed into community play specialist / nursery nurse.

Haveany of you thought about area of training?

Hi

I would expect you would need a minimum of a level 3 child related qualification to work as a community nursery nurse, as much of the work would be unsupervised as you are alone with famlies in their own homes.

All NHS posts are advertised on the NHS Jobs website www.jobs.nhs.uk

Hi have you tried the NHS careers website?

 You can search by area or job title,i think it does depend where you live but the "inside information" is they are looking to put lots of Community Nursery Nurses in post within the PCT'S.

I hope this is useful,get back to me if you want more info.

Hello everyone,

I have been a nanny for 10 years, and only have experince of working within a nursery on a temp/ad hoc basis between jobs.

 Do you think I would have any chance of getting a job as a cnn?  I am NVQ 3 qualified and did a year of a midwifery course that I later decided was not the career for me.  But had experience of community midwifery visits.. have I got a hope in hell of even getting an interview??

 Any advice would be very very much appreciated!  or if you have an insight into what they are looking for / interview or application tips

 sorry to be asking so much, but if yo can help that would be great.
