The centre has 100 places for children from 6 months to 5 years of age and is located at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research (WEHI) in the Parkville biomedical precinct, predominantly offering early education and care services to the employees of WEHI and Melbourne Health. Our program is shaped by immersive language learning (with a second language focus on German), inquiry-based learning through our Little Scientists program, and frequent incursions and excursions that connect us with our local community.

- Additional paid leave over Christmas/New Year
- Generous professional development opportunities incl. Froebel's own Future Leaders Program

- Close to public transport (please note, there is no on-site parking at Froebel Parkville)
What we're looking for:
- A qualified Early Childhood Educator (Certificate III or Diploma, please note: ECTs will not be considered for this position)
- Someone who communicates thoughtfully and builds trusting relationships
- A team player with energy, initiative and emotional maturity
- An educator excited by immersive language learning and inquiry-based STEM (no German required)
- A strong understanding of and commitment to child safety and ethical practice
- And above all, someone with warmth, positivity, and a heart for children
If this sounds like your kind of place, we'd love to hear from you. Please upload your CV and a short cover letter telling us why Froebel Parkville is the right next step for you.
