Hi, Hello, Galang nguruindhau, Gude, Wiswai

**About Y Queensland**

Our dedicated team provide a range of services including fitness and recreation, child care, education, community and youth centres, hospitality and beauty, housing and social impact.

The Y, Queensland is proud to be part of a multi-cultural and diverse community and continue to evolve our programs and services to best support those who are in need in the shape of School’s Breakfast Program, Community Centres, Cancer Survivor Program, and more.

YMCA Queensland supports communities across the state including Bundaberg, Sunshine Coast, North Brisbane, Brisbane Metro, Toowoomba, Ipswich and Gold Coast with more expansions to come.

**About the Team**

At YMCA Acacia Ridge Early Learning Service, we are more than just educators - we are a family. Our diverse and experienced staff come from around the world, including the Philippines, India, Bosnia, the Netherlands, Italy, and Australia, bringing a rich tapestry of cultures to our community.

For over 40 years, we’ve been proudly serving the Acacia Ridge area, and most of our educators have dedicated more than 15 years to shaping young minds and hearts.

We are committed to helping children grow in body, mind and spirit. We deliver a play-based learning curriculum that teaches children about the world, about others and about themselves. We support children to be confident, creative and inquisitive learners.

We are currently seeking **a Diploma qualified (or studying towards) Lead Educator** on a **Permanent Full-Time or Part-Time Basis** to join our team in the Toddlers Room.

Our educators create endless opportunities for children to explore and grow. We believe every child is a capable learner, and our team guides them on their journey toward becoming confident, independent, and self-regulating individuals. By carefully scaffolding their learning, we develop programs that inspire curiosity and open children’s eyes to the world around them.

We are also proud to offer regular Kinder Gym lessons in partnership with YMCA Gymnastics. These fun and engaging sessions allow children to unleash their creativity while learning foundational gymnastics skills, helping them to build physical confidence in a playful and supportive environment.

**About the role**

As Lead Educator, you will guide the Educators to provide a creative and an environment full of discoveries for children’s growth and development. You will also be responsible for creating programs that are engaging, meaningful and fun for the children.

What would my day look like?
- Under guidance and instruction of the Centre Director, develop, plan and implement quality programs for children in alignment with the criteria
- Assist the Centre Director in the day to day operations of the Centre as directed
- Work with each individual child with consideration of his/her cultural background and respect their beliefs
- Support the management of a workplace that supports diversity including gender, cultural and generational diversity; provide equal employment opportunity and foster a respectful, inclusive workplace
- Take reasonable care to ensure their own safety and health and that of others, and to abide by their duty of care provided for in the legislation
