Inspiring growth, learning and connection through nature

Are you an experienced early childhood educator ready to lead with heart and purpose? Our nature-based centre in beautiful Nabiac is seeking a passionate Room Leader to guide a team of educators and children through meaningful, outdoor-rich learning experiences.

  • Build strong relationships with children, families and your team
  • Actively participate in our outdoor learning program—rain or shine
  • Contribute to planning, documentation and reflective practice
  • Champion our centre's philosophy of connection, curiosity and community

What You'll Bring

  • Diploma of Early Childhood Education (or higher)
  • Experience leading a room or team in an early childhood setting
  • A love of nature and a willingness to get muddy and messy
  • Strong communication and organisational skills
  • A warm, collaborative leadership style
  • Current Working with Children Check and First Aid certification

Why Join Us?

  • Work in a truly unique, nature-rich learning environment
  • Be part of a passionate, supportive team
  • Lead with purpose and creativity—indoors and out
  • Grow professionally in a centre that values innovation and connection

Ready to inspire growth, learning and connection through nature?
