Cairns, Queensland, Australia Mayfield Childcare Limited Full time

At Mayfield Early Education Brinsmead, we're looking for dedicated Inclusion Support Educators (Cert III or above, or currently studying) who love what they do, value connection, and want to be part of a warm, collaborative team.

Here, you'll be more than just an Educator – you'll help every child feel included, supported, and empowered to reach their full potential, while being part of a close-knit community that celebrates growth and learning every day.

What Will You Be Doing?

Think helping little explorers feel confident, guiding them through daily adventures, supporting social and emotional growth, and celebrating every milestone – big or small. You'll work alongside Educators to provide tailored support, encourage curiosity, and make every day a positive experience for children with additional needs. Your role will be equal parts mentor, cheerleader, educator, and advocate – no two days are the same

Why This Centre?

Our Brinsmead centre is a welcoming, inclusive space where children can grow, explore, and thrive. With vibrant indoor and outdoor learning environments, natural play areas, and a culture that embraces every child's unique ability, you'll have the tools to make a real difference.

We're also big on community – from local initiatives to team-building events, you'll be part of a centre that values connection, collaboration, and giving back.

Why Join Us?

We take care of the people who care for our little legends. Here's what you can look forward to:

  • Generous enrolment discounts for your children in any Mayfield Centre.
  • Career development opportunities, including a monthly leadership series and pathways to grow your career.
  • Professional development, including overseas study tour opportunities.
  • Nationally Recognised Traineeships – study Cert III, Diploma, Bachelor, or Management-level qualifications in ECEC while you work.
  • Above Award rates – we reward your experience and dedication.
  • 10% wage uplift through the Educator Retention Grant.
  • Plus: Reward & recognition programs, staff referral bonuses, and 24/7 wellbeing support for you and your family.
What You'll Bring
  • Cert III (or higher) in Early Childhood Education & Care or currently studying.
  • Valid Blue Card / WWCC.
  • Child Protection, Red Nose, Food Safety training (or willingness to obtain).
  • A genuine passion for supporting children with diverse needs.
  • Knowledge of EYLF and NQF, with a desire to keep learning and growing.
  • Availability to work a minimum of 30 hours per week, Monday to Friday, within our 6am–6:30pm hours.

At Mayfield, we believe in nurturing not just children, but our team too. If you're ready to join a centre that feels like family, in a supportive, vibrant environment, we'd love to hear from you.
