Certificate III Educator

Working at Big Fat Smile, there’s a lot to smile about. The trust you’ll be given in exchange for your expertise. The freedom you’ll be given as an Educator to use your judgement, adapt learning approaches, and bring creativity and playfulness to a child’s day. The joy you’ll get from doing work you love with team members who are as invested as you. And the beautiful relationships you’ll form with peers, children, and families – through shared experiences that are as rich as they are rewarding. More than a job, this is an opportunity to make a child’s world a better, brighter place. Get greater enjoyment from your work and make more of a difference in the lives of every child in our child-first organisation. We’re looking for a Certificate III Educator at our Stewart St Community Preschool. With beautiful and engaging indoor, outdoor spaces, the service can provide many opportunities for the children to learn through active play. Whether it be interacting with natural materials outdoors, or building valuable friendships through diverse and safe experiences, the children have the ability to thrive. Our long-standing educators have many years of experience working with children under five years of age. They cater to the needs of working families by providing extra routine support. Stewart St Community Preschool is lucky enough to have two passionate cooks who prepare seasonal fresh, healthy meals, cooking from resources in their very own veggie garden. A supportive and safe workplace. When the going gets tough (as it sometimes does in this sector), you will find teammates and leaders have your back. There’s a real in-it-together feeling here thanks to a safe and supportive environment, and well-established policies and processes that outline exactly what’s expected and needed in any situation. Everyone’s in it together, making it easier for you to thrive. We treasure the expertise of our educators. As a Certificate III Educator, you will play a critical role in shaping young minds. You will create happy, healthy relationships between a child and the most important people in their lives. You’ll bring fun, laughter and play to each day, but most importantly, you’ll create magical moments for children to experiment and grow.
