Here at Little Wonders Oamaru, we’re passionate about meeting the childcare needs of busy families. We have great facilities, a well-considered curriculum, and a team of qualified and experienced teachers who love what they do. We're currently looking for Certificated Reliever teachers to join our team!

We believe our environment, influenced by the Reggio Emilia philosophy, empowers our akonga to feel protected, calm, safe and secure while fostering a platform for movement, fun, curiosity, discovery, risk taking, and growth. We recognise the value of free play as ‘child’s work’ to embed the knowledge and skills for life and inspire a life-long love of learning. We aspire to enhance the mana of every child, and their sense of themselves as an independent, competent, capable learner & communicator.

We encourage continuous growth and ongoing learning for our kaimahi, tamariki and whanau through the sharing of knowledge, stories, and wisdom, so they can learn sustainable practices and engage respectfully with Papatuanuku & the wider world. We support participation in an inclusive, welcoming environment where diversity, individuality, respect & resilience are empowered and reflected in our practice and learning community.

We offer special cultural events, family gatherings and work closely with whanau. We would love to welcome someone with a passion for young children’s learning to work alongside a strong, long-standing team.

Our offer to you:

• The chance to work across different rooms, with a diverse group of tamariki.
• The chance to work and learn alongside our strong, supportive team.
• Flexibility for your ideal work-life balance.
• The opportunity to join the Evolve network of ECE professionals.

What we're looking for in you:

• You are ECE Qualified and hold current or Provisional Teaching Registration.
• You are passionate, caring, and committed to education, and the best learning outcomes for tamariki.
