Child Care Worker

Joondalup, WA

We believe every child is born with unique talents and gifts that can be nurtured and inspired to give them the best start in life. A child who is loved will flourish in their environment, and feel empowered to choose their own path in life.

We support our educators to challenge discrimination, advocate for children’s rights and seek knowledge and understanding to contribute to the outcomes for children supported by the UNICEF Rights of the Child and the Early Years Learning Framework.

We will provide a safe environment for our children who will be supported by our educators to make choices and be challenged.

As a team we are committed to children, environments, and teaching pedagogies in a holistic manner to ensure that we consider the whole child, the educators’ strengths, and the ever evolving needs of the community in which we work and live.

We are seeking Diploma qualified educators or a Bachelor of education qualification to lead our team in the piccolo room. We can offer sponsorship for the right candidate and ongoing professional development training and mentoring for leadership roles is offered.
