Child Safety Matters
At Young Academics, we prioritise children’s safety and wellbeing. Our values and actions and decisions are guided by our genuine commitment to upholding the rights, interests, needs, and voices of the children in our care.
Only successful candidates will be contacted.
How do your skills match this job?
We’re a group of early learning centres dedicated to caring for children aged 6 weeks to 6 years. In these early years, the attention and interaction children receive is crucial – both to their immediate happiness, and their future development. So at Young Academics, we make it our mission to give each and every child the best possible support.
We understand that every child is unique, and we provide care that’s shaped around each individual. They are encouraged to explore, learn and develop at their own pace. And while education underpins everything we do, our play-based approach means that little ones are always allowed to be little ones.
