Hello. We’re the Y WA

We’re that local (Not-For-Profit) Early Learning Centre (ELC) located on Chipala Road, Westminster (Perth, WA), who’s all about inspiring and nurturing children to become independent little butterflies. And guess what? You’re a big part of how we make this happen.

You could be our new Early Childhood Teacher ready to release your early years education passion. But let’s face it, you work to live! Why join The Y? Check out your awesome perks below.

What you’ll be doing:

Walking into your architecturally designed centre you’ll smile, as the early morning sun shines over our award-winning nature escape. When the door opens, you’ll smell the fresh home-style meals and feel the community spirit. Some of your little ones will eagerly greet you! Some might be a bit shy to start, while you develop programs that meets the needs and reflects the interest of these special individuals. You’ll promote our new School ReadY program with your team of educators, manage compliance, and truly engage with our wonderful children and families. At the end of your shift, you’ll walk out the door (still smiling) knowing the children are continuing to develop in body, mind, and spirit.

• Have a degree in Early Childhood Education, or working towards your degree, or an equivalent qualification and TRBWA registration.
• Are very passionate about early years education within an Early Learning Centre environment
