Early Childhood Educator

360 Rivett is growing; and we're ready to welcome our next group of exceptional educators for 2026

Join educators who say that they have "found their forever home", "finally feel valued and recognised as professionals", and "work for a company that actually cares about children". Start dates are flexible between now and February 2026.

If you're energised by great practice, love working in a team that values children, and want to be part of a centre that exceeds expectations, you'll feel right at home with us. We have opportunities for you to join our Beyond the Classroom excursion program, Cultural Connections Working Group, our Fine Arts Engagement Program, or to spearhead your own initiatives as a new leader in our organisation.

We're looking for an Educator who wants to:

* Contribute to a centre known for high-quality education and care

* Bring strong organisation, initiative, and a love of learning

* Advocate for children and create meaningful outcomes every day

What you'll enjoy at 360 Rivett -

A team built for quality

Every room has one more educator than required because we believe ratios should support real relationships, not just compliance.
