A Warm and Inviting Place to Work

Newstead Early Education and Care is more than just an early childhood education centre; it’s a vibrant part of the Orange community, and many families from the Orange community will have memories of Newstead through the years.

Now, Newstead is a beautiful, light filled space where children, and educators thrive together. When you step foot inside the front doors,  you’re stepping into an inviting, happy and supportive environment that makes coming to work feel like being part of a family.

Why work in Early Childhood? 

That’s an easy one!  One of the key benefits of working in early childhood education is the flexibility it offers. Whether it’s a parent looking to balance family life with work, or someone seeking a fulfilling part-time role, Newstead offers opportunities that fit every lifestyle. We understand that life doesn’t operate on a strict 9-to-5 schedule, so we’re here to support you with flexible working arrangements that can cater to your individual needs.

Definitely a Rewarding Career Choice

Working with children in their early years is one of the most rewarding experiences you can have. Every day, you’ll help shape young minds, support their growth, and witness those incredible ‘lightbulb moments’ when they learn something new. The relationships you build with the children, their families, and your colleagues at Newstead will create a lasting impact, making your role meaningful and fulfilling. And that’s not something you see very often!

15% Pay Increase: Now’s the Time to Join the Sector

Thanks to the recent Federal Government budget announcement, early childhood educators and teachers will receive a 15% pay increase. This is a huge step forward for the sector and a significant reason why there’s never been a better time to either join, or rejoin the early childhood sector.  This increase makes early childhood education an attractive and viable career option.

A Fresh Start: Returning Educators and Career Changers Welcome

For educators looking to return to work after a break or primary school teachers considering a competitive change, the early childhood sector is now more appealing than ever. With flexible work options, professional growth opportunities, and the 15% pay increase, this is a great opportunity to rejoin or pivot into early education. It’s also a great fit for anyone considering a career change, offering a fulfilling and meaningful path in a nurturing environment.

Newstead: A Place for Growth and Connection

At Newstead, we believe in the power of connection—between children, educators, and the wider community. Our centre is more than just a workplace; it’s a place where you can continue to grow, develop your skills, and build lifelong connections. All teams receive ongoing professional development opportunities to support their journey and ensure they feel valued and engaged every step of the way.

Be Part of the Orange Community

By joining the Newstead team, you’re also becoming an integral part of the Orange community. We’re proud to be a trusted place for local families and children, and we invite you to bring your passion, skills, and heart to our centre.
