Working at Big Fat Smile, there's a lot to smile about. The trust you'll be given in exchange for your expertise. The freedom you'll be given as an Educator to use your judgement, adapt learning approaches, and bring creativity and playfulness to a child's day. The joy you'll get from doing work you love with team members who are as invested as you. And the beautiful relationships you'll form with peers, children, and families – through shared experiences that are as rich as they are rewarding.
More than a job, this is an opportunity to make a child's world a better, brighter place. Get greater enjoyment from your work and make more of a difference in the lives of every child in our child-first organisation.
Big smiles and bigger opportunities
We're Big Fat Smile. A not-for-profit that plays a pivotal role in the lives of thousands of children and families across Australia. We're early education enthusiasts, with 40+ community preschools, long day care centres and fun clubs, and a variety of community and inclusion programs. Each one dedicated to giving every child the best start in life. And each well-respected for the work it does.
Right now, we're looking for casual Early Childhood Educators for our Bingara Gorge Community Preschool 0-5 - an 'Exceeding NQS' rated service in Wilton. What makes this place special is the unique community spirit that you'll feel part of. The experienced team of educators and teachers care for up to 117 children aged 0-5, in our modern purpose-built facility that has two large open-plan spaces developed from natural outdoor play environments. With meditation, yoga and brain breaks embedded into our daily routine, it's just one way we're looking after everyone's wellbeing.
You will also have the opportunity to work across our Manooka Valley Community Preschool, Picton Community Preschool, Wollondilly Mobile Community Preschool and many more.
A supportive and safe workplace
When the going gets tough (as it sometimes does in this sector), you'll find teammates and leaders have your back.

Everyone's in it together, making it easier for you to thrive.
