Centre Cook
Goodstart Early Learning
- Meadow Springs, WA Perth, WA
- Permanent
- Part-time
The centre is fully staffed with each of our five rooms having Diploma trained educators. All our educators are dedicated to offering the highest standard of childcare to all of our families in a setting that accommodates all children's developmental needs.
In addition we also aim to provide a safe and supportive environment for the children and their families.
All of the rooms are set up in line with an Early Years Learning Framework, with sensory and play based learning opportunities. Colourful, stimulating surrounds ensure the children have the chance to grow and develop through sensory, play-based learning.
Our centre was assessed by the Australian Children's Education and Care Quality Authority and we received an overall rating of 'Exceeding'. This process is a National Framework, which rates all Childcare Centres across Australia against the National Quality Standards.
Our Storypark platform, as well as regular family nights and emailed newsletters, enable us to stay in close contact with parents and families, ensuring open and clear communication. This also means we can tailor each program to the child's individual needs, interests and strengths - as well as the strong level of cultural diversity in our centre.
Outside, we have three areas all with age appropriate play spaces and equipment. Our yards are beautifully shaded, with sandpits, bike paths, a wooden fort and lots of space to explore.
Community is also important to us and through visits to the centre and participation in events and activities throughout the year we are able to enrich the learning experience. Art and music experiences are provided on a daily basis which allow the children to freely express their creativity.What Goodstart can offer you:We pay highly competitive wages, at least 5% above the national award rates50% discount off your childcare gap fees and 4 weeks paid parental leave - increasing to 6 weeks from December 2023Professional development - we offer a range of opportunities to grow your skills and your careerWellbeing focus - our wellbeing program will ensure you get the support you need, when you need it mostAdditional leave - you'll have the option to purchase extra leave for even greater work-life balanceRetail discounts - you'll save money on insurance, travel and technologyUniform allowance and employee referral programSecurity and stability - as Australia's largest provider of early learning and care and a not-for-profit social enterprise, we exist purely to improve the lives of Australia's children and their familiesYou'll need:Certificate III in Commercial Cookery or experience cooking within a childcare settingCurrent Western Australia Working with Children CheckHow to applyClick 'Apply Now' and submit your application.We review applications as they are submitted.
