Are you an efficient, organised person who loves helping to create a nurturing and joyful space for children? Our small, privately owned centre on the Northern Gold Coast is seeking an experienced and reliable Kitchen Assistant / Educator to join our beautiful Children's House.

This permanent part-time opportunity combines your passion for nourishing food and your skills in managing a small kitchen with your interest in early childhood education, all within a supportive, child-centred environment.

About Us

At The Children's House, we are deeply committed to child-led learning, respectful care, and creating meaningful relationships with children and families. Our team is supportive, professional, and genuinely invested in providing a beautiful, quality learning experience.

About the Role

This position focuses on the smooth and safe running of our kitchen as well as assisting our classrooms. You'll play an important role in our daily rhythm, helping children feel nurtured and supported throughout their day. We are passionate about the importance of nutrition as part of self-care and view meal times as a wonderful opportunity to guide grace and courtesy, cultural learning and social skills.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Preparing fresh morning and afternoon snacks
  • Setting up and serving catered lunches with care and efficiency for up to 32 children
  • Maintaining a safe, clean and inviting kitchen environment
  • Supporting educators in the rooms as needed—helping with transitions, engaging with children, and bringing a calm presence to the day

About You

You'll be a warm, organised and proactive person who takes pride in creating a sense of calm and order - whether in the kitchen or with the children.

You will have:

  • Minimum Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care (or be working towards)
  • Current Working with Children Check (Blue Card)
  • Current First Aid, CPR, Asthma and Anaphylaxis training
  • At least 12 months experience in food handling and knowledge of food safety standards
  • A caring, collaborative attitude and a genuine interest in supporting young children

What We Offer

  • Above award wages (between 10-15%)
  • Supportive, professional and friendly team culture
  • Ongoing professional development
  • Beautiful, thoughtfully designed learning spaces
  • A positive workplace where you feel valued and supported

If you believe in creating meaningful experiences for children and enjoy nurturing others through both nutrition and care, we'd love to hear from you.
