Foxwell Magic Child Care Centre | Coomera, Gold Coast QLD Are you a passionate Early Childhood Teacher who loves creating meaningful learning experiences and making a genuine difference in children's lives?

Do you love being part of a team, bringing positive energy into the workplace and creating an environment where children, families and educators feel supported?

Foxwell Magic is looking for an Early Childhood Teacher who is ready to bring their knowledge, creativity and passion to our team — and have some fun along the way!

About Foxwell Magic Foxwell Magic has been a much-loved early learning service in the Coomera community for 11 years.

We have recently completed an exciting extension, growing from six rooms to eight rooms, and our service still feels brand new.

We are proud of the team and culture we have created. Many of our educators have been with us for years, with team members who have been part of Foxwell Magic for 10, 8 and 6 years, as well as many others who have been with us for more than a year.

We believe that great services are built by excellent people — and that great early childhood programs are built by passionate, knowledgeable and supported educators.

About the Role We are looking for an enthusiastic and passionate

Early Childhood Teacher (ECT)

to join our team and take responsibility for delivering a high-quality kindergarten program. The room that you will be responsible for has a smaller number of around 10 children and while you transition to the role you will have a support person there with you every day.

This is an opportunity for an ECT who wants to be part of a service where their professional knowledge, ideas and individuality are valued.

You will work closely with children, families, educators and the leadership team to create a learning environment where children feel safe, confident, capable and excited to learn.

You will have the opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with children and families while designing and implementing an engaging program that reflects children's interests, strengths, ideas and individual learning needs.

We are also open to flexible working arrangements.

We understand that a traditional five-day working week doesn't suit everyone. If you would prefer to work a

four-day week , we are happy to discuss how this could work for you.

Our priority is ensuring that any working arrangement continues to meet all requirements of the

Queensland Kindergarten Funding Guidelines , including the requirements for an approved kindergarten program, appropriate teacher attendance and continuity of the kindergarten program.

We are happy to have a conversation about what flexibility could look like while ensuring we maintain a high-quality, compliant kindergarten program for our children and families.

What You'll Be Doing As our Early Childhood Teacher, you will:

Plan, implement and evaluate a high-quality kindergarten program

Develop an engaging program based on children's interests, strengths, abilities and individual learning needs

Use the Early Years Learning Framework to guide curriculum decisions and children's learning

Create meaningful learning experiences that support children's development, wellbeing and school readiness

Build strong, respectful and genuine relationships with children





Support children to develop confidence, independence, resilience and a love of learning

Document children's learning and use observations and assessment to inform future planning

Work collaboratively with educators to ensure consistency and continuity of the educational program

Share your knowledge and pedagogical expertise with the wider team

Develop strong relationships with families and communicate positively about their child's learning and development

Contribute to the ongoing improvement of the service and kindergarten program

Maintain appropriate records and documentation in accordance with regulatory and funding requirements

Support inclusion and ensure all children are provided with meaningful opportunities to participate

Contribute to a positive, professional and team-oriented team culture

Maintain a strong understanding of the National Quality Framework and National Quality Standard

Work collaboratively with the Educational Leader and leadership team

Lead by example and demonstrate professional standards of practice

This is more than simply delivering a kindergarten program.

We want our ECT to be someone who genuinely enjoys getting to know children, discovering what makes them tick and creating experiences that make them excited to come through the front door each morning.

We want someone who isn't afraid to get down on the floor, get involved, be creative and have a laugh with the children.

The Person We're Looking For We are looking for an ECT who is passionate about early childhood education and wants to make a genuine difference.

You might be an experienced ECT looking for a new service, or a newly qualified teacher looking for a supportive environment where you can continue developing your professional practice.

Most importantly, we're looking for someone who:

Has a genuine passion for early childhood education

Loves working with children and building meaningful relationships

Is enthusiastic, creative and brings positive energy into the workplace

Has a strong understanding of children's learning and development

Is confident planning and implementing an engaging kindergarten program

Values collaboration and enjoys sharing knowledge with other educators

Is approachable, reliable and qualified

Has a positive, can-do attitude

Is happy to get involved across the service when needed

Can have a laugh and doesn't take themselves too seriously!

At Foxwell Magic, we believe that the best educators are people who genuinely enjoy what they do.
