Diploma Educator - Mayfield Early Education Clifton Beach

Part-Time Diploma Educator | Mayfield Early Education – Clifton Beach

Where the rainforest meets the reef, and every day brings a new adventure in learning.

Are you a Diploma-qualified Educator who loves creating meaningful moments with children? Do you thrive in a close-knit, supportive team where laughter is part of the daily routine? At Mayfield Early Education Clifton Beach, we’re looking for a passionate and caring Educator to join our beachside family on a part-time basis.

Here, you’ll be more than an Educator — you’ll be a role model, a storyteller, a co-explorer, and a trusted part of our community.

What You’ll Be Doing

From finger-painting masterpieces and garden adventures to spontaneous singalongs and science experiments, you’ll help our curious little learners explore their world through creativity and play. You’ll guide them through their milestones with patience, kindness, and joy — celebrating every step along the way.

Every day is different — and that’s what makes it so rewarding!

Why You’ll Love Mayfield Clifton Beach

Our centre is nestled in one of Far North Queensland’s most stunning spots — surrounded by nature, just minutes from the ocean. With shady outdoor play spaces under native trees and a spacious indoor gym for yoga, ball games, and active play, children (and educators!) have room to move, grow, and breathe.

We’re proud of our warm, community-driven culture — where we lift each other up, celebrate big and small wins, and get involved in local events that make a real difference.
