Are you passionate about making a difference in children’s lives while working in a supportive, close-knit, and genuinely welcoming environment?

At Mayfield Early Education Allenstown, we’re more than just an Early Education centre—we’re a cosy, home-like community where every child, family, and team member feels a true sense of belonging. Nestled in a quiet suburban street, our centre offers a nurturing, holistic approach to early learning, where natural play spaces and meaningful relationships make every day rewarding.

Our friendly and inviting setting feels like a second family. With real grass outdoor areas and inviting, cosy indoor spaces, both children and educators can feel comfortable, explore freely, and be themselves. Our peaceful surroundings allow children to connect with nature and experience childhood at its best—safe, joyful, and full of wonder.

We’re a close-knit team that values connection, collaboration, and laughter. From your very first day, you’ll be supported through our buddy and mentor system, ensuring a smooth and welcoming start. We also hold regular “Gather and Grow” events—because we believe strong relationships make for stronger teams. Plus, you’ll have access to 24/7 medical and wellness support through our partnership with Sonder.
