Job description

About Discovery Junction Opawa

Our purpose-built, privately owned centre is designed to nurture and inspire. Licensed for 70 tamariki, we have four vibrant classrooms tailored to various ages and stages of development.

Due to role growth, we are looking for a passionate, fun, caring and knowledgeable kaiako to join our amazing Dreamers team working with our under twos. Our Dreamers room is licenced for up to 16 babies, and our ratio is 1-4.

Our centre has a play-based philosophy where children’s interests are nurtured and extended. You will be working alongside kaiako who are passionate, professional, inspiring and respectful, who have a commitment to tamariki and their whanau.

This is a permanent, full-time teaching position, 9-5 : 30pm Monday to Friday.

What we offer

  • Extended pay parity rates.
  • Monthly paid staff meetings.
  • Paid registration and first aid fees.
  • Great ratios to ensure quality interactions and care (1-4 in our nursery and 1-8 for our over 2’s classrooms).
  • Supportive management.
  • Discounted childcare fees.
  • Separate non-contact space.
  • Nightly professional cleaners so you can focus on what’s important - tamariki.
  • A beautiful modern, purpose-built working environment which includes a large staffroom with a coffee machine for your daily caffeine fix.

What we are looking for

  • A registered Kaiako
  • A kind and compassionate, experienced teacher who is ready to build beautiful relationships with our tamariki, kaiako, and our Discovery Junction whānau.
  • Someone who demonstrates kindness and a genuine passion for early childhood education.
  • A team player who uses their initiative and problem-solving skills.
  • If you are a passionate early childhood educator who loves working with tamariki and wants to be part of a supportive and inspiring environment, we’d love to hear from you!

    Join our team and become a part of something special!
