Re: Application for Nursery Nurse role

Dear Sir/Madam or Specific Name,

I am writing to apply for the Nursery Nurse position I have seen advertised on daynurseries.co.uk.

This position is of interest to me as I have extensive experience working with 2 -3 year olds from my time at Nursery Name. I live locally to your nursery.  

I hold a Level 3 qualification in Childcare and am keen to work towards more qualifications. I am an empathetic person who uses initiative when dealing with childcare and works well in a team.

Thank you for taking the time to consider my application. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours sincerely,

Your Name
