About the Role

Campbelltown Community Children’s Centre is seeking a Lead Educator (Room Leader) for our Babies Room (6 weeks to 18 months).
This full-time position is ideal for a Diploma-qualified or suitably qualified educator who leads with accountability, heart, and vision.

As the room leader, you will guide your team in creating a warm, responsive, and inspiring environment that supports each child’s growth, learning, and wellbeing. You’ll take pride in fostering secure attachments, meaningful experiences, and a sense of belonging for both children and families — all within a Reggio Emilia–inspired, play-based setting.

We’re expanding our team to continue offering high-quality, meaningful learning experiences for our children and families.

Why Campbelltown CCC?

We’re more than a childcare centre — we’re a community.
Here, children are celebrated as capable citizens, educators are recognised as professionals, and families are true partners in every learning journey.

When you join us, you’ll find:

A team that celebrates you — we acknowledge birthdays, milestones, and the little things that make a big difference.

A dedicated wellbeing area for educators to unwind and recharge during breaks — because your care matters too.

Above-ratio staffing in every room, allowing you to slow down, connect deeply, and teach with intention.

Professional growth that’s meaningful — not just box-ticking, but reflective learning that supports your development as a leader and educator.

Leadership that listens and invests in you — we mentor, guide, and encourage every step of the way.

A culture of belonging, accountability, and respect, grounded in shared values and a collective vision.
