Nestled in the heart of Rotorua, Learning Adventures Rotorua is surrounded by rich culture, history, and the natural beauty of our rohe. With Whakarewarewa and Te Puia right on our doorstep, we love getting out and about with our tamariki, exploring our local taiao and making the most of the incredible learning opportunities within our community.

Our centre is built on strong values of whanaungatanga and manaakitanga. We believe in building meaningful relationships with our whānau and wider community, creating a place where everyone feels welcome and connected — whether they are enrolled with us or simply part of our neighbourhood.

You’ll often find our tamariki heading out on local hīkoi and excursions, discovering the stories, culture, and environment that make Rotorua so special. Around our centre, we’ve also been planting fruit trees that will grow into a little community orchard, something our tamariki can help care for and enjoy for years to come.

We’re looking for a Certificated Kaiako who loves the joyful, busy world of toddlers and brings a calm presence when the room is full of energy and discovery.

Our offer to you:

  • 30 hours per week, across 5 days.
  • A centre full of resources and support where your creativity can shine.
  • A collaborative team that values whanaungatanga, laughter, and great teamwork.
  • Opportunities to learn, grow, and develop your career.
  • Connection to the wider Evolve Education Group network of passionate ECE professionals.
  • A half-day of birthday leave — because every birthday deserves a little celebration.
  • Sufficient non-contact hours for effective program planning.

What we're looking for in you:

  • You are ECE Qualified and hold Current/Provisional Teaching Registration.
  • You’re calm, nurturing, and confident supporting busy toddler learners.
  • You’re flexible, energetic, and love being part of a supportive team.
  • You’re passionate about helping tamariki explore, learn, and thrive.

If you believe every day should include laughter, creativity, and a little bit of joyful chaos, you’ll fit right in with our team.
