Inspiring Early Childhood Teacher (ECT) - Coffs HarbourWe are flexible and open to qualified Early Childhood Teachers living in Coffs or the surrounding areas to either join on a permanent part-time basis aligned to your available days or on a full-time appointment if it is your preferred arrangement. At our Coffs Harbour service there is a wonderful opportunity to align further to an age group that you enjoy depending on your interest and experience. How will Petit support you as an Early Childhood Teacher, you may wonder? At Petit Early Learning Journey, the voices of all of our Early Childhood Teachers hold immense importance within each centre. We allocate 5 hours of non-contract time per week for programming and planning needs, host monthly ECT team networking sessions across our services and allow you autonomy to implement your practices within your studio - we are not micromanagers!
For our Early Childhood Teachers in the early stages of their career rest assured we have an abundance of support on offer. Julie, our National Quality & Education Adviser stands ready to assist you with curriculum, programming and best practices. Alongside, Amber our National Operations Manager, and Mel from People & Culture who spearheads leadership programs throughout each service. With their extensive experience in Early Childhood Education and Care, individually they are formidable mentors, and together they form a powerhouse to nurture and guide you in your role and career.
We boast an incredibly supportive centre leadership team committed to doing whatever it takes to lift you up in your role. The wellbeing of our team is paramount as we recognise the challenges inherent working in the early childhood profession. We prioritise team wellbeing and offer a flexible working environment creating work-life balance and host quarterly bonding events. We understand that being an ECT in early childhood is no easy feat, which is why we stand ready to support you in every way possible.
From our Employee Engagement Survey (Oct 23) some of our Coffs employees said the "sense of community and belonging is high! As a new team member, it is amazing to walk into such a welcoming and warm environment." Further on what we are doing well at Petit; the "quality of educator and children's relationships" and the "support from head office and operations is fabulous. Trust is given and I am able to grow and thrive at work".
We offer an abundance of learning programs, foster connection with our local community that include visits to the local library and collaborate with community members who provide incursion programs like yoga, music and dance as well as excursions.
At Petit ELJ Coffs our Education team is rewarded for their dedication with generous above award and if you are a qualified Early Childhood Teacher we are open to further discussion. We offer an additional allowance for our ECT's aligned to a funded program, in recognition of the complexity of these programs as well as funds towards studio resources. If you find yourself contemplating the prospect of exploring a new opportunity we can offer a highly confidential discussion.
