Get in Touch!
Work life balance: You can flexibly fit relief shifts around your own personal schedule and lifestyle. Simply update your availability on our app and only receive shifts for the days and hours you are available for.
Work within a range of philosophies: Gives you the opportunity to expand your skill set and professional growth.
Extended pay parity (qualified teachers): We appreciate the hours of study and years of experience our teachers have undertaken to get where they are, which is why we are committed to paying you against your applicable extended pay parity step.
Easy to use app: Receive shift notifications for the days and times you have made yourself available for. Simply accept or decline the shift as it comes through. Once you accept, you will be given google map directions on how to get there, plus the ability to check in and check out so you do not forget the hours you worked. Then you can end the day by entering your timesheet on the same app.
The good news is, no, you don't need a qualification to do ECE relief work. If you are an unqualified we do require you to have current / recent experience working with children and managerial referees that can attest to your experience working with 0-5 year olds.
We use a scheduling app named Colleago which you will gain access to upon employment with us. Through this app you will receive push notifications of available shifts that match your location criteria. You are simply able to accept or decline depending on your preferences. Centres will often request the same relievers back to ensure consistency.
Yes you can, through our Colleago app, you are able to update the days you are available and enter a location radius. You will only recieve shift requests on the days you are showing as available and ones that are within your radius. Sometimes if we are struggling to fill the shift, we will push the notification out to all locations for you to decide whether you would like to accept or decline.
2x forms of ID Qualification and Teachers Registration if applicable. Packed lunch, water and some snacks. Please arrive early so you can familiarise yourself with the school or centres policies and procedures.
