Footprints Early Learning Centre are seeking Educators with qualification of Diploma, Cert III and an Early Childhood Teacher to join us on Full-time, Part-time basis.
Roles and Responsibilities of each educator will include but not limited to:
Fun, energetic and enthusiastic about education as our small team are.
Planning engaging experiences: To ensure children get the most from their Early Childhood education, it’s important to offer them meaningful, stimulating experiences.
Observing children’s experiences: Part of your role as an educator is to make observations about a child’s Early Childhood education. This is to see where they are at developmentally, assess what they enjoy or don’t enjoy, and perhaps determine their readiness for school when the time comes. Observations enable you to see whether a child’s needs are being met and their interests are provided for.
Communicating effectively with families and children: Families put a lot of trust in Early Childhood educators. It’s a privilege to be trusted to care for their children! Keeping an open line of communication helps to give families peace of mind and create strong bonds.
Role-modelling: The way you behave and interact can have an impact on the children in your care. Being an Early Childhood educator is also being a role model to many young, impressionable children. Speaking calmly and clearly, actively listening and being polite are just a few examples of how you can show children how to be the best they can be.
Managing health and safety: When you take responsibility for caring for young children, managing their safety is paramount.
Having an in-depth understanding of your duties as an Early Childhood educator puts you in good stead to shine in your career. Plus, it means that you will be contributing to upholding the National Quality Standard (NQS) and helping children to flourish.
