The freedom you'll be given as an Educator to use your judgement, adapt learning approaches, and bring creativity and playfulness to a child's day.

And the beautiful relationships you'll form with peers, children, and families - through shared experiences that are as rich as they are rewarding.
More than a job, this is an opportunity to make a child's world a better, brighter place. Get greater enjoyment from your work and make more of a difference in the lives of every child in our child-first organisation.
**Big smiles and bigger opportunities**
We're Big Fat Smile. A not-for-profit that plays a pivotal role in the lives of thousands of children and families across Australia. We're early education enthusiasts, with 40+ community preschools, long day care centres and fun clubs, and a variety of community and inclusion programs. Each one dedicated to giving every child the best start in life. And each well-respected for the work it does.
Due to our size, there are big opportunities for those who want to go further. You'll find meaningful career paths with lots of promotions across our centres. And because professional learning and growth is at the heart of everything we do, you'll have the support and knowledge to succeed.
Right now we're looking for a Diploma Educator for our Kenny Street Community Preschool. Our qualified and experienced educators and teachers are passionate about delivering high quality early childhood education, and in engaging in strong, nurturing relationships with our children and families.
Each child has a focus teacher and our small numbers allows more time for educators to get to know each individual child personally and help them build on those ever-important fundamental learning skills.
We have a great support network from the local and wider community, including the local Primary School, which enhances our Transition to School program.
A great aspect of our centre is that it is located close to Wollongong CBD, which supports working families of the Illawarra and Wollongong region. This position is also fundamental for our programs and involvement with the wider community through excursions and incursions.
