Looking for a meaningful career, a supportive culture and the chance to grow? Whether you're already working in early years or are just starting out, we'd love to talk to you about which of our amazing opportunities would be the best fit for you.

As an Educator you will be a team player, collaborating with the Senior Educators and Educational Leader within your centre to observe, inform and continuously improve our educational programs on offer to children. You put safety first with everything that you do and ensure all learning experiences are inclusive and respond to the needs of all children.

About Goodstart Albany:

Goodstart Early Learning Child Care Centre Albany is conveniently located near the heart of the Albany CBD, on the corner of a nice quiet leafy cross road. We are close to many amenities such as a Pharmacy, Pioneer Doctors Surgery, Gym and Rainbow Coast Neighbourhood Centre.
We are a purpose built service, with five large rooms, a kitchen and cook, and enough play space outdoors for children to discover and explore at their will. We are fortunate enough to have two Nursery Rooms where we can tailor our learning programs to suit the age groups of our foundation years. Nursery 1 (6 weeks – 15 months), Nursery 2 (15 – 24 months) and then we have our Toddlers room with our terrific twos (2 – 3 years), and our Kindergarten years).
Our teaching team has an abundance of experience and skills with highly qualified and nurturing educators. We are proud to offer a Kindergarten program that caters for our transitioning children to mainstream educational facilities and supports their learning development in their early years education.
We embrace the Early Years Learning Framework by supporting each child's individual learning and development through a play based curriculum that is central to all practices of the service. We believe that play based learning provides opportunities for children to learn through a method, that is natural to them and is intrinsically motivated and not forced upon them.
Our centre was assessed by the Australian Children's Education and Care Quality Authority and we received an overall rating of 'Exceeding'. This process is a National Framework, which rates all Childcare Centres across Australia against the National Quality Standards.
Our Storypark platform, as well as regular family nights and emailed newsletters, enable us to stay in close contact with parents and families, ensuring open and clear communication. This also means we can tailor each program to the child's individual needs, interests and strengths – as well as the strong level of cultural diversity in our centre.
Outside, we have three areas all with age appropriate play spaces and equipment. With beautiful trees for natural shade as well as sandpits, bike paths, swings, a wooden fort, bark pit area, pet guinea pigs and veggie patches, we offer a spacious and interesting environment for children to play and explore.
We also have a beautiful indigenous cultural garden which enhances our commitment to sustainability, cultural understanding and community diversity. Goodstart Albany acknowledges the diversity of the community and therefore caters to all within the service. Our educators also extend from a diverse background and this is reflected in all that we do at the centre. We acknowledge that all children have the right to an education and we strive to ensure that a quality practice is delivering such a service to the community.

What Goodstart can offer you:

  • Better pay - you'll get at least 5% above the award rate
  • 50% discount off your childcare gap fees and 6 weeks paid parental leave
  • Paid professional development - we offer a range of opportunities to grow your skills and your career
  • Wellbeing focus - you'll get two wellbeing days included in your personal leave per year
  • Additional leave - you'll have the option to purchase extra leave for even greater work life balance
  • Retail discounts - you'll save money on insurance, travel and technology
  • Uniform allowance and employee referral program
  • Security and stability - as Australia's largest provider of early learning and care and a not-for-profit social enterprise, we exist purely to improve the lives of Australia's children and their families

You'll need:

  • Diploma in Early Childhood (or ACECQA approved equivalent)
  • Strong knowledge of the Early Years Learning Framework and National Quality Standards
  • Current Western Australia Working with Children Check
