Help shape the future of children in our care

Are you ready to embark on a journey where you'll nurture young minds and inspire lifelong learners? As our valued Lead Educator in our nursery room, you'll be at the heart of C&K Arlington Drive, guiding children to discover their curiosity, capabilities, and confidence.

Sam and her team take pride in their cozy, home-like vibe that builds warm, relaxed relationships between educators and families. Here, we're all about creating playful learning experiences that grow with input from children, families, and our vibrant community.

Bring your skills, creativity, and passion for education to our team. Together, let's craft a safe, supportive, and super fun play-based learning environment that sparks joy and learning for children, families, and our entire community.

What you’ll bring

Whether you’re an experienced early childhood professional, newly graduated or just commencing your studies, if you’re energetic, fun and committed to guiding children’s early learning and development, we’ll set you up for success

To thrive and succeed in this role, you will have or be willing to work towards:

  • A minimum of a Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care or willingness to commence studying that qualification.
  • First Aid, CPR and Asthma and Anaphylaxis certification.
  • Valid Blue Card or Exemption Card.
  • A Police Check current within three months (or willingness to obtain one).

You will bring a passion for achieving long-lasting, high-quality outcomes for children, their families and the community alongside a team-player mindset - when you join C&K, you join a village of good-hearted, talented people, so you can lean on them as they lean on you.

Join us and find a better way with C&K - for children, for you, for always.

C&K is a child-safe organisation and all C&K employees are required to undergo a police check and not be a ‘Restricted Person’ or Suspended Educator under the QLD Blue Card System.
