We are a Christian childcare centre located in Queenstown, providing exceptional care and education to families in our community.

We are currently looking for enthusiastic and reliable candidates to join our casual relievers pool. While an ECE qualification is an advantage, we are also interested in hearing from experienced, unqualified applicants who have references demonstrating their experience working with young children.
