Job Description

Are you looking for a job where no two days are the same? Do you enjoy working with children and making a real difference in their day? BestStart Dunedin is looking for caring and enthusiastic Caregivers to join our Casual Reliever Team, supporting our centres across Dunedin .


This is a great opportunity if you’re studying, returning to work, or wanting to gain experience in Early Childhood Education. As a reliever, you’ll have the flexibility to choose when you’re available while gaining hands-on experience in supportive and welcoming teams.


About the Role


As a Casual Reliever Caregiver, you will:


  • Support our teaching teams with the day-to-day running of the centre
  • Help create safe, fun and engaging learning environments
  • Build positive relationships with tamariki, whānau, and colleagues
  • Step into different centres as needed across the Dunedin area

Reliever work is flexible and offered on an as-needed basis. You let us know your availability, and we’ll work with you to match shifts.


What We’re Looking For


  • A genuine passion for working with children
  • Reliability and a positive, can-do attitude
  • Confidence to adapt to new environments
  • Strong communication skills
  • The legal right to work in New Zealand


Previous ECE experience is helpful but not essential — we’re looking for the right attitude and willingness to learn.


Why Join Us?


At BestStart , we are committed to supporting our people and creating centres where everyone can thrive. Joining our reliever team is a great way to gain experience, build confidence, and potentially explore future permanent opportunities.


If you’re ready to be part of a supportive team and make a difference in the lives of children across Dunedin, we’d love to hear from you.


Apply now to join BestStart Dunedin as a Casual Reliever Caregiver.
