If you’re a kaiako who believes learning should be joyful, playful, and full of wonder, you’ll feel right at home with us. At Active Explorers Kaiwharawhara, our days are filled with curiosity, laughter, and those magical “aha!” moments that make teaching toddlers so special.

Our team is creative, collaborative, and always up for bringing a spark of fun into the day. With a Centre Manager who loves mentoring and supporting emerging teachers, you’ll have the freedom to explore your teaching identity, share your ideas, and build deep, meaningful relationships with our tamariki.

We’re on the lookout for a certificated kaiako ready to dive into our energetic toddler space — a place where every day is an adventure and every moment is a chance to learn, grow, and shine. This full‑time role could be your new home base, where you’re encouraged, celebrated, and supported every step of the way.

• A warm, inclusive team that values your voice and your ideas
• A thoughtfully resourced centre designed to spark imagination and meaningful learning
• Encouragement and guidance from a Centre Manager committed to your growth
• Opportunities to connect with the wider Evolve whānau — a nationwide network of inspiring ECE professionals
• A special half‑day of birthday leave, because celebrating YOU matters
• Generous non‑contact time for planning, reflection, and professional development

• You have a strong, working understanding of Te Whāriki
  
  
• You bring a flexible, open‑minded approach and enjoy learning alongside others
