About this role

Casual Educator - Armadale

When the day changes, I still need someone steady.

Someone who understands routines.

Someone who reads the room.

Someone who helps me feel safe even when things are a little different.

At Only About Children Armadale your experience can bring that calm.

We're looking for an experienced, flexible and relationship-led Casual Educator.

About our Armadale campus

At Armadale, my day feels bright, calm and full of character. I arrive at a renovated church on Kooyong Road, close to trains, buses, parks, playgrounds and cafés. The building feels special, but still warm and safe for children like me.

I learn in six indoor rooms and play outside with sandpits, a wooden fort and slide, rocky riverbeds, mist for warm days and shady spaces. I can make friends, ask questions, explore and feel proud when I try something new. This is where character, calm and curiosity come together.

You're The Difference

At OAC, they say You're The Difference.

I think that means your experience helps my day feel steady. You know how to step in gently, support my educators and help the room feel safe, playful and calm.

About the role

I need someone who can bring calm quickly.

As a Casual Educator, you will support rooms across the campus and bring Diploma-level experience, confidence and care into each shift.

What you'll do

My room feels steadier when you bring calm, capable support to the parts of the day that need it most.
My learning keeps growing when you support play that follows children's interests, strengths and needs.
My confidence builds when you help with routines, wellbeing, independence and big feelings.
My educators feel supported when you read the room and respond to what children and teams need.
My family and room feel more connected when you build respectful relationships quickly and thoughtfully.
My safety matters every shift, so you follow OAC policies, room routines and child safe practices.

What you'll bring

A Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care, or approved equivalent.
Experience working in an early learning environment.
Strong understanding of the EYLF, NQS and child safe practices.
Flexibility, reliability and confidence working across rooms.
Warm, professional communication.
A collaborative and supportive approach to teamwork.
A Working with Children Check, or willingness to obtain one.

What we offer

OAC gives you flexible casual shifts that can support your availability and lifestyle.
Supportive campus teams help you feel welcomed and prepared when you arrive.
Working across rooms and age groups gives your experience variety and purpose.
Curriculum and wellbeing resources help you keep supporting children's learning with confidence.
Casual work may open pathways into permanent roles across OAC.
OAC values your Diploma experience and judgement, because children like me feel it in the steadiness of the day.

Child safety and inclusion

I need to feel safe before I can learn, play and grow.

At OAC, child safety comes first. There is zero tolerance for child abuse and harm. Everyone who joins the team must help create a safe, nurturing and inclusive place where children have a voice, feel safe, and are valued and respected.

You will need to complete all required working with children, background and compliance checks. OAC welcomes people from all backgrounds who share this commitment.

Apply now

If you want to bring calm, capable care into children's days, I hope you apply.
