Underwood, Queensland, Australia Perfect Beginnings Childcare Full time $90,000 - $120,000 per year

About us

We are privately owned and managed company, made up of 6 individual centres. Each centre having their own identity, but all sharing the same pride and goal for exceptional early childhood education and care. The best thing about working within our teams is that we are big enough to have personal development events together, influence the industry and collaborate, but small enough to know each other's names and value what each individual person brings to our organisation.

We are paying the Worker retention grant.

Our team is dedicated, caring and collaborative. Professional conversations and reflective practices are built into our culture. Our leadership team are supportive and understanding, we adopt a shared leadership vision to support growth and professionalism of all employees.

We support our team by offering above award rates of pay, addition non-contact time and high staff discounts. We provide additional staffing about the ratio requirements to support our teams.

We provide a unique approach to documentation focus on quality interactions with children, rather that mass paperwork.
