Do you enjoy working from home?
Alice Springs Family Day Care Inc is always seeking interest from people who are creative, energetic and want to be part of a professional child care team. Pre-service training is provided, along with ongoing professional development and support.
If you have a desire to run your own business from home, and are seeking a personal and professional challenge, this could be the career choice for you.
We require Educators that can provide either:
- full-time care
- part-time care
- shift work
- evenings and weekends
- care in the child’s home
Those interested will need a Senior First Aid Certificate, or ability to obtain one.
We regularly run 6 day educator Inductions. If you are interested in applying for a place on an induction, please Contact Us on 89523406 for more information and to arrange an interview.
Prerequisites
- Maturity and life experience are essential attributes, therefore it is essential that applicants be at least 18 years.
- You, and all persons 18 years and over residing in your home, must pass a National Criminal History Check.
- You will need a Senior First Aid Certificate – if you do not have one we can assist you with details of where to book.
