Charlestown, Australia The Rumpus Room Children's Centre Charlestown Full time

We are looking for a nurturing and engaged education professional who would like to be part of a team of educators and teachers who are implementing an amazing program across the 0-5 ages. If you have a passion for professional development, working collaboratively as part of a team, and experience providing quality, nurturing care for children between the ages of 0-5, we would love to have you

Our purpose built 79 place purpose build centre in the heart of Charlestown features a large sweeping deck overhanging our own 'secret' rainforest. We are building strong connections with the land and community, and always looking to extend these connections. We will operate above ratio across the centre, and, as all educators program, every educator will receive two hours of programming a week. All qualified educators are paid 15% above award to reflect the important role that they play within our community.

Educators receive one rostered day off per month (that is booked in by you, rather than being planned for you). We believe that to support a mentally healthy workplace, educators should be able to choose when and how their leave is taken. This is done in open and honest conversations between the director and staff member. We also close for roughly two weeks over the Christmas period, covered partly by public holidays, and partly through your leave accruals, depending on educator preference.

Educators who have children at the centre also receive reduced child care fees at any of our Rumpus Room centres, helping educators take home more of their pay

Our centre is made up of a close-knit group of educators who have incredible passion for the Early Childhood Education sector. We are huge advocates of child safety and believe that quality education in the early years creates a strong foundation for the child's future.

If you are someone that is seeking inspiration, looking to innovate, and shares a passion for all things early childhood education, please reach out and we can organise an interview
