Casual positions
We are looking for experienced, imaginative & nurturing Early Childhood Educator superheroes who:
have a true passion for Early Childhood Education & Care
are driven by the love of inspiring curious young minds

As a Studio Assistant Educator, there will never be a typical day… Through our play-based learning philosophy we are constantly reminded what a wondrous world we live in. You could go from singing Johnny works with One Hammer to a magician or gardener. Of course, you will still be responsible for all of the compliance-based things like safety checks, communicating with families, recording children’s progress, routines and interests - but all while creating a safe supportive space where children thrive.
Toral Lodge Childcare Centre is situated in a tranquil environment in Buderim, Sunshine Coast Queensland. This centre is purpose-built for young children and families to enjoy farmyard experiences. Toral Lodge is a place where all people are valued. Educators, children, parents, families, and the wider community all have vital roles within our centre. We believe that every child is a unique individual and we convey this in all that we do. Our philosophy and belief about children guide our programs and practices.
What you’ll need:
Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care (or ACECQA approved equivalent)
Experience in being a pirate finding lost treasure, making potions and singing loudly with little people.
Strong knowledge & understanding of the Early Years Learning Framework and National Quality Standards
Current & Valid Working with Children Check
First Aid and CPR certificates including Asthma and Anaphylaxis training.
