Teaching - Early Childhood (Education & Training)
Full time
Bright Stars Montessori Preschool is a family owned and operated early years education service. We pride ourselves on bridging the gap between traditional day care and kindergarten. We are child focused and go beyond to ensure learning is tailored to each child's specific needs.
Our Minchinbury centre is the ideal location as our facility is built in the new Great Western Centre. This thriving hub is a real asset to the area with a gym, numerous eateries, health and beauty outlets just to name a few.
We build trusting relationships between educators, families, and children as we value the importance of each party in the holistic development of the children in our care. We are child-centered in every aspect of our service.
We also place a strong emphasis on delivering a high-quality service within a fun and stimulating environment. We have worked hard at each of our locations to immerse ourselves into the community and build a good reputation with a strong waitlist.
We are currently seeking an experienced Lead Educator to guide our baby room. The ideal educator would be passionate about educating and caring for children but also a team player who offers support when required and is able to share their knowledge freely. Most of all a people person who also values relationships.
