ECE Relief Teacher | Busy Bees Masterton

NZ

Unregistered Teacher

Choose your days, make a difference. We’re looking for quality Relief Teachers to support our passionate team. Our centres are full of aroha and positivity, with real opportunities to grow. Keen to relieve at your local centre or across the Wairarapa? Have a kōrero with us.
 

As a reliever, you set your availability, which is ideal if you’re studying or returning to work and want balance. If you’re flexible and can help at short notice, we’d love to hear from you. You’ll join a professional, upbeat team where the work is positive, fun, and genuinely rewarding.

About us:

Busy Bees Masterton is a warm, community-minded centre in Lansdowne where every child is a taonga. Spacious, well-resourced rooms support each age and stage, with shared spaces for rich tuakana-teina moments. Native trees and birdsong set the tone for calm, nature-led learning. Guided by our values of Happiness, Connections, and Discoveries, we give tamariki the roots to grow and the wings to fly. As part of Busy Bees Aotearoa, you’ll be backed to learn, lead, and thrive.
 

About you:

You’re the kind of person tamariki warm to quickly: calm, reliable, and ready to jump in. You read the room fast, keep supervision and safety tight, and follow centre routines while using initiative. You build easy connections with whānau and the team, support play-based learning, and add simple, clear notes when needed. You value our bicultural kaupapa and weave te reo Māori where you can, or you’re keen to grow here. You’re comfortable with short-notice calls and varied hours.
 

Why you’ll love it here:

• Real flexibility, you choose your availability

• Supportive team and welcoming culture

• Well resourced centres and calm, organised rooms

• Comprehensive induction and on-shift mentoring

• Teacher in Training programme available if you want to study ECE

Ready to jump in when it counts? Apply today with your CV and a short cover letter. We look forward to hearing from you.

Please note: Applicants for this position should have NZ residency or a valid NZ work visa.

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.
