Our early education centre features six classrooms specifically designed for different age groups, fostering Tuakana/teina relationships and engaged tamariki. Our focus at Busy Bees Hobsonville lies in empowering tamariki to direct their own learning while ensuring they feel supported and safe. We offer a diverse range of open-ended and natural resources to encourage teachable moments and create happy, learning-focused experiences. Our kitchen is fully equipped with all the tools you need to cook up delicious food for our tamariki!

Our preferred candidate will be:

  • Experienced in cooking for large groups, be it in a childcare centre or other environment

The ideal candidate will possess a current Food Handling certificate and have prior experience preparing delicious meals for preschoolers. We are seeking an individual who aligns well with our values and holds a genuine interest in providing well-prepared, nutritious meals for our tamariki.
