BIG SMILES AND BIGGER OPPORTUNITIES

We’re Big Fat Smile. A not-for-profit that plays a pivotal role in the lives of thousands of children and families across Australia. We’re early education enthusiasts, with 40+ community preschools, long day care centres and fun clubs, and a variety of community and inclusion programs. Each one dedicated to giving every child the best start in life. And each well-respected for the work it does.
Due to our size, there are big opportunities for those who want to go further. You’ll find meaningful career paths with lots of promotions across our centres. And because professional learning and growth is at the heart of everything we do, you’ll have the support and knowledge to succeed.
Right now, we’re looking for a Diploma Educator for our Picton Community Preschool – an ‘Exceeding NQS’ rated service. Picton Preschool is a happy meeting place for children and their families. Serving the local community since 1971 where play & creativity are paramount to learning and discovery. Children are encouraged to belong, be and become, maintained by nurturing, supportive and intentional educators.
While academics are important, our day is forged by a child-interest-centred curriculum. Our centre focuses on the child’s inter-personal skills…developing their independence… empowering them to make choices… to believe in their own thinking… learning how to live in a micro community of people.
We allow children to be in the ‘now’. The world of school and adult skills will happen because they have been allowed to be children and play within a safe, creative environment. Also our school readiness occurs every day for every child.
