Superstar Childcare Traineeship | Learn, Earn & Grow
No experience in childcare? That's completely fine!

n

Maybe you've just finished school, you're looking for a career change, or you've always thought about working with children but haven't known where to start.

n

Whatever your background, we'd love to hear from you!

n

At QCE Child Care , we're looking for our next superstar to join our team in Mittagong and kick-start their career in early childhood education.

n

And the best part? You don't need any childcare experience or qualifications to get started.

n

We're looking for someone with a great attitude, a willingness to learn and a genuine interest in working with children. We'll provide the training, mentoring and support to help you become a confident and qualified educator.

So, what's the job actually like? n

You’ll be working alongside our experienced educators, getting involved in all the little (and big!) moments that make working in childcare so rewarding.

n

One minute you might be helping with a painting activity, the next you're reading stories, playing outside, supporting daily routines or celebrating a child's latest achievement.

n

No two days are quite the same, and there's definitely never a dull moment!

n

Along the way, you'll be completing your Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care , gaining practical experience while earning an income.

n

You’ll be involved in things like:

n

n
- n

Supporting children's learning through play and everyday experiences.

n
- n

Helping with activities, creative experiences and outdoor play.

n
- n

Building positive relationships with children, families and fellow educators.

n
- n

Assisting with daily routines, including meals, rest times and supervision.

n
- n

Learning how to create safe,



engaging and welcoming environments.

n
- n

Developing your skills and knowledge as you work towards your qualification.

n

Who would fit in well at QCE? n

We're not looking for someone who knows everything about childcare already. That's what the traineeship is for!

n

We are looking for someone who:

n

n
- n

Has a positive attitude – someone who brings good energy to the team and enjoys being around others.

n
- n

Is reliable – someone who shows up on time, takes their responsibilities seriously and can be counted on.

n
- n

Communicates well – someone who isn't afraid to ask questions, share ideas and work as part of a team.

n
- n

Wants to learn – someone who's open to feedback, willing to give things a go and keen to develop new skills.

n
- n

Genuinely enjoys working with children – someone who understands the importance of helping little people learn, grow and feel supported.

n

n

Most importantly, we're looking for someone who wants to be here, wants to learn and is excited about building a career in early childhood education.

Why join the QCE team? n

We're a privately owned early childhood service in the Southern Highlands, and we're proud of the team and environment we've built.

n

We believe in supporting our educators, encouraging professional growth and making sure everyone feels like a valued part of the team.

n

Here’s what you can look forward to:

n

n
- n





Earn while you learn – work full-time while completing your nationally recognised Certificate III.

n
- n

Support every step of the way – learn alongside experienced educators who genuinely want to see you succeed.

n
- n

Career progression – we encourage our Certificate III educators to continue their education and progress towards their Diploma and beyond.

n
- n

A supportive team – we're big on communication, teamwork and helping each other out.

n
- n

Organised systems and solid leadership – you'll have the guidance and structure to help you succeed.

n
- n

No take-home work – when your workday is finished, it's finished!

n
- n

A rewarding career – make a real difference in children's lives while building skills for your future.

n

n

At QCE, our purpose is simple: Quality Care and Education.

n

Our team is guided by five core values: Honesty & Trust, Effective Communication, Professionalism, Teamwork and Safe Learning Environments.

n

These aren't just words on a wall. They're what we look for in the people who join our team.

A few important things to know n

This is a full-time traineeship , so there are a few requirements:

n

n
- n

You must be available to work full-time, Monday to Friday, across our operating hours of 7:00am–6:00pm.

n
- n

You must have full Australian working rights without requiring current or future visa sponsorship.

n
- n

You must be willing and eligible to obtain a Working With Children Check.

n
- n

You must be willing to obtain the required First Aid qualifications.

n
- n

You must be committed to completing your Certificate III traineeship, which generally takes around 18 months.

n

n

We're looking for someone who sees this as the beginning of a career, rather than just a short-term job.
