We champion the children, young people and families we work with. We are inspired by the curiosity and creativity of children and motivated by the love of those who care for them.

With the child’s voice at the centre, we provide quality services to children and their caregivers, advocating with them so that children develop, learn, and are connected, safe and confident. Our people are proudly local, reflective of the communities we serve – in every state and territory, and across regions, remote areas and capital cities.

Where you come in:

In this full time, maximum term role (7.6 hours per day, Monday to Friday, through to end of December 2024), you’ll help coordinate the planning, implementation, and review of culturally appropriate developmental play and learning experiences for children. You’ll also provide support and information to parents on developmental issues and make appropriate referrals to other health, education, and welfare agencies. As part of our Play2Learn team, you’ll report to our Team Leader, working across various locations within the Katherine Township boundaries as required.

You will make an impact by:

  • Planning and facilitating weekly playgroup sessions
  • Finding creative ways to encourage families to engage with our support programs and services
  • Identifying and addressing physical, social/emotional, and educational needs
  • Providing information and referrals to families to access other relevant programs or welfare agencies
  • Supporting with process monitoring, data collection, and reporting

Does this sound like you?

You have experience in early childhood programs and the ability to think on your feet, which allows you to find solutions to complex situations. Your infectious enthusiasm for your job will see you actively seeking out families in need of support. Your cultural knowledge will help you build strong connections with children and families from varying cultural and socio-economic backgrounds.

This role requires:

  • Qualification in Early Childhood Education (a minimum of a Certificate IV is strongly preferred)
  • Experience working with children 0-6yrs and families in a group setting
  • Prior experience working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and/or CALD communities
  • Knowledge and understanding of the Early Years Learning Framework
  • Competency in the use of Microsoft Office programs and ability to use databases

Working at 54 reasons is more than just a job.

We are a learning organisation that invests in the development and wellbeing of our people. Our workforce is 600+ people strong, and proudly diverse, whether in race, ethnicity, gender, age, disability, sexuality, cultures and beliefs.

We are creative, connected and accountable, bringing energy, guts and ideas to all we do to champion children in Australia and partner with families, communities and partners to bring about change. Our people work from both home and office, with important moments held in-person to foster belonging and support professional development.
