Katoomba, New South Wales, Australia Dayaa Early Learning and Preschool Full time $60,000 - $90,000 per year

Join the Dayaa Village Could you be our next Village Guide?

We are looking for Certificate III and ECT qualified and working towards educators to join our team. If you are looking to commence a career in the early childhood industry through a traineeship, please also feel encouraged to apply.

(Because it truly takes a village, and we think you might be our missing piece)

Do you dream of spending your days finger painting, building epic block towers, exploring the wonders of mud pies, and being someone's favourite grown-up? Are you passionate about learning, growing, and making a real difference in the lives of little people (while occasionally getting glitter stuck in places you didn't know glitter could go)?

Welcome to Dayaa Early Learning and Preschool

At Dayaa, we believe in a joyful, child-led, play-based approach where children and educators grow together, hand-in-tiny-hand. We're not your average early learning service—we are a village that celebrates curiosity, champions children's voices, and treasures the magic of unhurried learning. Here, we don't rush. We connect. We nurture. We giggle. A lot.

What's in it for you?

  • Mentoring and encouragement from a team that genuinely wants to see you succeed
  • The chance to be you—bring your creativity, your ideas, and your spark
  • A space where your work, contributions and efforts are valued and recognised with a 15% above award pay rate
  • A workplace where learning is child-led, play-based, slow-paced, and full of heart
  • Ample relief from face to face programming and planning time to help you bring your wonderful ideas to life
  • Regular team outings and team bonding opportunities to encourage connection and collaboration
  • A positive and healthy workplace culture with a strong emphasis on your work life balance
  • A community that believes YOU are just as important as the children we care for
  • A commitment to your continued growth and development as a professional with regular workshop and professional development opportunities

Your Mission (Should You Choose to Accept It):

  • Be an amazing partner in play, discovery, and joy
  • Learn alongside our children—getting your hands dirty, your heart full, and your skills growing
  • Build warm, trusting relationships where children feel safe to explore, create, and simply be
  • Embrace the village life—working closely with families, teammates, and the wider community
  • Bring your authentic self to our home-like, supportive environment
  • Advocate for children and help create a space where their voices are heard and celebrated

You'll Love This Role If:

  • You've got a big heart, an open mind, and a love for the wonder of childhood
  • You believe that children are capable, powerful little humans
  • You're ready to jump in, learn, laugh, and maybe dance like no one's watching (but the children definitely will be)
  • You've got a commitment to quality care that is centred around child safety and you are empowered to contribute to our advocacy of children's rights and amplification of children's voices.

Ready to Get Started?

Come and start your journey with us at Dayaa. We're not just offering you a job—we're inviting you to be part of something meaningful, something bigger, something that feels like home.

APPLY NOW

Because together, we can build something incredible.

Because you can do things we cannot, and we can do things you cannot. But together?

Together we can do great things.
