ECE Relief Teachers | Busy Bees Pahiatua
Looking for a role where you can set your own hours, try new spaces, and be welcomed by a team that genuinely has your back? Come and join us as a casual Relief Teacher. It’s flexible, it fits around life, and it’s perfect for students or parents easing back into work.
About us:
We’re a small rural community in the Tararuas where school and everyday life flow together. Our teachers are neighbours and friends who know the families, understand local rhythms, and care deeply about each child’s wellbeing and learning. Because we’re close-knit, tamariki feel safe and seen. Like rivers joining, our children bring their own stories and strengths, and our kaiako walk beside them, offering the guidance and nourishment that helps them grow.
About you:
You’re the kind of person who can jump in at short notice and bring calm, care, and good energy with you. ECE experience is a bonus, but what really matters is your warmth, clear communication, and a genuine love for nurturing little humans. You’ll be supporting a professional, fun team that celebrates small wins, shares ideas, and looks out for each other.
If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you. Please send your CV and a short cover letter telling us a bit about you and your availability.
We offer a great benefits package, a beautiful nurturing environment and a wonderful team of dedicated teachers to work with.
Please note: Applicants for this position should have NZ residency or a valid NZ work visa
Why Work for Busy Bees?
If you’re passionate about early learning, Busy Bees is the place to be. Although we are part of a global organisation, our company was founded by three families looking for better, more enriching childcare. Three decades later, we still keep the same values at heart.
We know that we couldn’t do what we do without the important people in our teams. We invest in our people and work with them to build career pathways that inspire.
