Diploma Educator – Full-Time / Part-Time

Come make a difference where childhood, nature and connection matter.

Are you an Early Childhood Educator who genuinely loves what you do?

Someone who believes that the little moments matter...the muddy feet, the big questions, the belly laughs, the comforting hugs, the discoveries in the garden and the moments when a child suddenly says, “I did it!”

We’re looking for a passionate Diploma-qualified Educator to join our wonderful team on a full time basis. Part-time will also be considered.

A little about us

We’re proud to be a service where relationships come first.

Our team is supportive, fun and genuinely connected. We look out for one another, celebrate each other’s strengths and believe that when educators feel valued and supported, children thrive.

Nature play is a huge part of who we are. We believe children deserve the freedom to explore, get messy, take safe risks, wonder, create and connect with the natural world. Our outdoor spaces aren't simply somewhere children go to play, they are an extension of our learning environment.

We want an educator who gets excited about this.

Someone who sees a puddle as an opportunity, a stick as a treasure, the garden as a classroom and a child's curiosity as something to be nurtured.

❤️ What we’re looking for

- Holds a Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care (or equivalent) - Can be Working Toward.

What you’ll find here

You’ll find more than just a job.

This is a place where your ideas are welcomed, your professional growth is encouraged and you can bring your authentic self to work.

Most importantly, you’ll have the opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of children, helping them feel confident, curious, connected and excited about learning.

If you’re the kind of educator who comes to work each day thinking, “How can I make today meaningful for these children?” then we would love to hear from you.

Come and be part of something special. ❤️
