AddressLittle Environeers is on the hunt for some incredible Educators and an Early Childhood Teacher to join our new and freshly renovated service in Macleod.
We are not your ordinary early learning service, so are seeking educators who are seeking a change and incredibly passionate about what they do. Must have experience working with children, use your initiative and take on feedback from a wonderful supportive team.
We foster and encourage an outdoor learning program which operates in all weather and have a strong belief in encouraging children to explore and learn in the outdoors in appropriate attire. We encourage risky play and love when the children are busy making mess.
Our children know what they are looking for and hope that that you meet the criteria below:
"I want them to be funny"- Mstr Z
"I want them to be happy and kind"- Mstr J
"I want them to love me"- Mstr A
"I want them to cook"- Miss A
"I want them to play" - Miss G
"I want them to do cartwheels"- Mstr Z
"I want them to do a backflip"- Mstr J (We understand this will be very rare :)
"I want them to help me when someone is hurting me"- Mstr A
"I want them to make necklaces with me"- Miss G
"I just want them to love me"' Miss V

Little Environeers is a family owned and operated Early Learning Service. We pride our selves on being different and don't align ourselves with one particular theorist or philosophy. We draw from theorists such as Vygotsky, Maria Montessori, Louis Malaguzzi, Rudolph Steiner and promote independence, collaborative learning and see that children's interests are at the forefront of everything we do.
