Job Description

BestStart is New Zealand’s largest provider of early childhood education, with a vision to partner with families, whānau, and communities to help children reach their full learning potential. We are committed to creating an environment where tamariki thrive, and our teachers are passionate about making a real difference in their lives.

The Role:

We are looking for dedicated, passionate, and reliable Reliever Caregivers to join our team in the East Auckland region. As a Reliever Caregiver, you will play an essential role in ensuring our centres operate smoothly in the absence of permanent staff, whether it's covering sick leave, study leave, or holidays. Your flexibility and commitment will help make a lasting impact on the children’s development.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Provide high-quality care and education to tamariki.
  • Work alongside a supportive teaching team to create a positive learning environment.
  • Be flexible with hours and locations, stepping in as needed.
  • Foster strong, respectful relationships with children, families, and whānau.


What We're Looking For:

Our ideal candidates will demonstrate the following:

  • Reliability and flexibility – able to adapt to different environments and needs.
  • Motivation and energy – passionate about working with children and contributing to their learning.
  • Initiative – able to take charge when needed and help create a smooth running day.
  • Caring, respectful attitude – showing kindness and respect towards children at all times.
  • Eligibility to work in New Zealand – you must have the right to work in New Zealand.


Why Choose BestStart?

  • Every BestStart centre is unique, reflecting the special qualities and backgrounds of its children, teachers, and communities.
  • We are committed to the growth and development of our people, with many of our permanent roles filled from our pool of relievers.
  • Enjoy a great work-life balance and the opportunity to contribute to the success of a vibrant team.


If you are passionate about early childhood education and ready to make a positive impact in the lives of tamariki, we’d love to hear from you!
