Big smiles and bigger opportunities

We're Big Fat Smile. A not-for-profit that plays a pivotal role in the lives of thousands of children and families across Australia. We're early education enthusiasts, with 40+ community preschools, long day care centres and fun clubs, and a variety of community and inclusion programs.

Right now, we're looking for a Certificate III Educator for our Barrack Heights Community Preschool - an ‘Exceeding NQS' rated service in Barrack Heights. At Barrack Heights believe we are the second most important part of each family's day, as they enter our early learning centre, they will be able to grow, be supported, be nurtured and learn through our play-based curriculum that is inclusive for all children birth-5 years.

Our very well thought out curriculum focuses on each child's individual needs and development whilst also including theorists, the early years learning framework and the national quality standards as we continue to grow and support each child's overarching needs to provide the best quality foundation of early childhood education and care.

Our environment allows for free flowing both in natural and built spaces that allow all children to make decisions for their own learning and development, continuing to strengthen their wellbeing, needs and interests.

  • Providing quality education and care to all children
  • Contributing to planning educational programs that supports a child's learning to meet their goals
  • Building strong relationships with children, families, and the community

What you need to succeed

  • Commitment to making sure the children in our care are safe and healthy
  • Dedication to improving the lives and minds of children, families, and the community
  • A fun-loving attitude and big smile
