WHO WE ARE

At the Moreton Bay Colleges’ Early Learning Centre, we believe childhood is a time to wonder, discover, create and explore.

Our Centre provides long day care for girls and boys aged 15 months to 4 years, offering a safe, nurturing and engaging environment where every child is encouraged to learn, grow and develop in their own unique way. Our play-based approach places the child at the centre of everything we do, supporting individual development through meaningful experiences, exploration and inquiry.

As we prepare for 2027, we are seeking enthusiastic and caring Early Childhood Educators to join our Early Learning team in permanent full-time and part-time positions.

If you are passionate about creating meaningful learning experiences, building strong relationships with children and families, and being part of a collaborative Early Learning community, we would love to hear from you.

The safety of students is our highest priority!

We are deeply committed to a safeguarding culture where every student is protected and supported to thrive.

All staff are expected to actively contribute to our Safety Citizenship Culture and be supportive of the Christian ethos of our Uniting Church college.

• Strong communication and interpersonal skills
• A natural ability to build positive rapport with young children
• A collaborative, team-focused approach
• Initiative and a proactive attitude
• An enthusiastic, energetic and adaptable approach
• A genuine commitment to child safety and wellbeing
• An understanding of workplace health and safety practices
