**About the role**:
We have a casual opportunity for a skilled and Bachelor qualified Infant Mental Health Consultant to join our Cooke Court Uniting SEED (Specialist Early Education and Development) Service located in Richmond.

**About you**:
As an Infant Mental Health Consultant of this research replication site, you will have significant experience in direct clinical care within an infant mental health service or similar.

**About the program**:
Our Cooke Court Service aims to reproduce the results of an Early Years Education research program with our partners The Parkville Institute, the Australian Government Department of Education, the Victorian Government and Yarra City Council.

The results of the original trial showed significant improvement in children’s cognitive skills including language and speech, resilience, social and emotional development.

This service works with a multidisciplinary team of researchers to ensure the model is operating with fidelity and operates with lower child to staff ratios, a maximum of 48 children attending 5 hours per day Monday to Friday.

If you’d like to know more or arrange an informal tour and chat, please contact **Mandy Hurdle, Senior Manager Early Learning Operations on 0419 334 641.**
