Let’s work together

Interested in working at Kiwitahi Playhouse? Fill out some info and we will be in touch.

We can't wait to hear from you.

Kiwitahi Playhouse is on the lookout for passionate, kaiako to help us lay the foundations for something amazing!

Our small rural centre is ready to welcome our very first tamariki — and now, we need our first awesome team.

A bit about you:

  • You're a qualified and registered (full or provisional) ECE kaiako, teacher in training, aspiring ECE leader or someone wanting to work alongside tamariki everyday

  • You love the idea of growing something new, side by side with a close team

  • You believe in child-led, play-based learning surrounded by nature

  • You’re full of heart, energy, ideas and a good sense of humour

  • You’re excited by the idea of being part of a small, community-focused whānau

What we can offer you:

  • Pay Parity rates

  • Paid first aid certification and teacher registration

  • A say in helping shape our centre’s culture, routines, and traditions

  • A small centre vibe — intimate, supportive, and full of heart

  • Professional development opportunities as we grow

  • Fresh air, green fields, and a spot in a beautiful rural setting

Excited? We are too!
