Kitchenhand
We're looking for a caring, organised and reliable Kitchenhand to join our team at Only About Children Bridgeman Downs.
This is a role where your work becomes part of the daily rhythm of the campus, helping children feel nourished, cared for and supported through positive food experiences.
About our Bridgeman Downs campus
Our Bridgeman Downs campus is a spacious, purpose-built service set across an impressive 10,000m² environment. With expansive outdoor spaces, children are encouraged to explore, take risks, and build confidence through play.
Our team is long-standing, collaborative, and genuinely supportive — creating a positive environment where educators feel valued and connected.
You're The Difference at OAC
At Only About Children, everything starts with one simple truth: You're The Difference.
In the kitchen, your care is felt across the whole campus. The meals you prepare, the attention you give to allergies and dietary needs, and the way you help children build positive food experiences all shape their day.
With us, your work helps children feel nourished, safe and ready to learn.
About the role
As Kitchenhand, you'll support the preparation and delivery of fresh, nutritious meals and snacks for children aged 0 to 5, with health, safety and children's wellbeing front of mind.
Depending on campus needs, you may be preparing meals, assisting the Cook, supporting food service, managing kitchen routines, or helping maintain a clean and safe food environment. You'll support children's dietary, cultural, developmental and allergy requirements with care and accuracy.
