Our Centre has been supporting children and families since 2006, and our commitment to quality, connection and community remains at the heart of everything we do. With our occupancy continuing to grow and our permanent team navigating periods of leave, illness and well‑deserved breaks, we urgently need reliable, caring casual educators who can step in and help us maintain the consistency our children depend on.

Your role is essential. Casual educators help ensure children feel safe, settled and supported even when their familiar educators are away.

Previous applicants need not reapply.

- Communicate respectfully and professionally with families
- Ensure children are supervised, supported and thriving throughout the day
- Contribute to a calm, consistent workplace for children and educators

Your presence helps children feel safe, families feel reassured, and our permanent team feel supported.

- A warm, friendly team who genuinely value your contribution
- Daily support from long‑standing, experienced educators
- A safe, encouraging environment to build confidence and skills
- Exposure to high‑quality practice and reflective teamwork
