About you

---

You're an experienced and passionate early childhood professional who’s ready to take the lead in shaping the future of young children and the educators who support them. With a Diploma (or equivalent) in Early Childhood Education and Care, you bring a deep understanding of the Early Years Learning Framework and a commitment to nurturing children’s sense of being, belonging, and becoming.

You thrive in leadership roles and have a proven track record of guiding teams, coordinating programs, and creating inclusive environments where both children and educators can flourish. With strong knowledge of the Education and Care Services National Law (WA) Act 2012 and Regulations, as well as child protection legislation, you’re confident in your ability to ensure compliance and champion the highest standards of care.

You're someone who brings vision, initiative, and a calm presence to your role. Whether it's working with families to achieve meaningful outcomes, designing programs that reflect the unique needs of your community, or leading staff development and training, you do it all with a deep sense of purpose and professionalism.

Organised and tech-savvy, you’re just as comfortable leading a team meeting as you are preparing reports or navigating sector forums. You’re known for your ability to build relationships, influence outcomes, and lead with empathy, integrity, and a commitment to continuous improvement.
