Our warm and welcoming centre is a place where curiosity, creativity, and connection come to life every day! With three vibrant learning spaces, a huge shared outdoor playground, and a team that feels more like whānau, our centre is buzzing with fun, laughter, and meaningful learning moments for Tamariki.

Guided by a free-play philosophy, we believe strong relationships are at the centre of everything we do. Our learning priorities — respect, relationships, communication, and independence — shape the way we support Tamariki to grow with confidence, kindness, and a sense of belonging. Whether it’s exploring our gardening programme, getting hands-on with science experiments, or heading out on adventures in the local community, no two days are ever the same!

We’re looking for a Non-Certificated Kaiako, 20 hours per week, who brings positive energy, initiative, and a willingness to jump in and be part of the team. Our long-standing, supportive team are passionate about creating a nurturing environment where both Kaiako and Tamariki can thrive. If you’re flexible, caring, eager to learn, and ready to hit the ground running, we’d love to meet you!

Our offer to you:

  • A fun, supportive team that truly values relationships and teamwork
  • A centre where no two days are the same — filled with laughter, learning, and adventure
  • Opportunities to grow your confidence and skills within ECE
  • A beautiful learning environment with spacious outdoor play areas
  • Connection to the wider Evolve Education Group network

What we’re looking for in you:

  • A positive attitude and willingness to learn
  • Initiative, flexibility, and a can-do attitude
  • Someone who enjoys being part of a team and building strong relationships
  • Flexibility to work opening or closing shifts when needed
  • Previous ECE experience is preferred but not essential

If you’re ready to join a caring centre where teamwork, fun, and meaningful learning are part of everyday life — apply now! We can’t wait to welcome you into our whānau.
