Amaze Special Early Education Centre is looking for a passionate and experienced qualified ECE teacher to join our specialist team in Epsom, Auckland.

Amaze has been intentionally created to provide a nurturing, inclusive and responsive early learning environment for neurodivergent tamariki and children who benefit from additional support. We believe every child deserves to be understood, valued and given genuine opportunities to belong, participate and thrive.

We are particularly interested in hearing from teachers who hold an early intervention, specialist education or related qualification, or who have strong practical experience working alongside children with diverse learning, communication, sensory and developmental needs.

This role would suit a kaiako who is confident adapting their teaching to the individual child rather than expecting the child to adapt to the environment. You will work closely with tamariki, whānau and the wider teaching team to create meaningful, individualised learning experiences grounded in each child's strengths, interests and ways of communicating.

We are looking for someone who:

• holds a recognised ECE teaching qualification and current NZ teacher registration
• has early intervention/specialist education qualifications and/or relevant experience
• has experience supporting diverse communication, sensory and regulation needs
• builds genuine, respectful relationships with tamariki and whānau
• is patient, calm, flexible and reflective
• values collaboration and inclusive practice
• is committed to Te Whāriki, Te Tiriti o Waitangi and culturally responsive practice.

At Amaze, you will be joining a growing specialist service where lower ratios, individualised support, sensory-aware environments and meaningful relationships are central to our approach.

If you are looking for an opportunity to use your teaching and early intervention experience in a setting designed to celebrate and support neurodivergent tamariki, we would love to hear from you.

Come and help us create a place where every child can belong, grow and be uniquely themselves.
