Calling all tamariki-loving legends in Waiuku and the wider Franklin region – we’re on the hunt for energetic, reliable, and caring Reliever Caregivers (Unqualified Teachers too!) to jump in and make a real difference in our BestStart centres.

At BestStart, we’re not just New Zealand’s largest provider of early childhood education – we’re a passionate bunch who believe in helping every child shine. Our centres are vibrant little communities, and we need you to help keep them running smoothly when our regular team needs a breather.

What does a Reliever do?
You’ll step into our centres when someone’s off sick, on leave, or on study days. You’ll laugh, play, care, support – and go home knowing you’ve made a positive impact on a little person's day.

 No formal ECE qualifications are required—this is a fantastic opportunity to gain experience and explore a rewarding career in early childhood education! 

What we’re looking for:

  • A spark for working with tamariki
  • Reliability – our centres depend on you!
  • Flexibility to move across different days and locations
  • Energy and a positive, can-do attitude
  • A respectful and kind heart (our children deserve nothing less!)
  • You must be eligible to work in NZ 
  • 2x Manager references

What’s in it for you?

  • Work that fits around your life
  • Be part of a caring, connected team
  • Every BestStart centre is different – so you’ll never be bored 
  • Get noticed – our relievers are often the first we look to for permanent roles!
