Early last month, the Kids' Uni Team gathered for their annual Awards Evening to recognise our wonderful team here.

Our Early Intervention Therapist & Team Leader, Toya, received Kids' Uni Staff Member of the Year.

This award honours someone who embodies the very best of Kids' Uni, consistently going above and beyond, lifting others up, and leading with professionalism, integrity and heart.

Their extraordinary commitment to children, colleagues and our values sets the standard for excellence and enriches our organisation every single day.

Hello!

As we near the end of the year, we are looking to grow our team in 2026 and become mighty and strong before Thriving Kids starts sometime in the future.

As an organisation with links to UOW and as part of a growing Early education service, we are hoping to capitalise on these networks, but can only do this with experienced and passionate staff who can help us provide innovative and quality services and supports. Do you want to join the fun?

Permanent part-time salaried positions are available for all disciplines with on-site or external supervision, low billable hours, and training and professional development.

We are diversifying our service, building our therapy models, training our team in the DIR and PAIR model and looking to further our impact.
If this sounds interesting, please reach out.

Please call me if you have any queries on 42393641 or email us at lucym@uow.edu.au

Join our growing multidisciplinary team, working with children aged 0-6 years in a rewarding role with great employee perks.
