Come join our team.
We are looking for successful and passionate early years learning educators to lead and mentor our school faculty and help our team reach the highest level of early childhood education in Perth. We have plans to grow into several schools. The Akidamy culture and relationships with the faculty team and school families are key to our success. Community connections broaden our School experiences, and our boutique school environment makes us one of Perth’s leading early childhood education establishments.
About Our Company
Our Just Cause…
At the Akidamy, we dream of a world where an outstanding holistic early childhood education that supports, encourages, inspires, and nurtures children is a universal right.
Why we do what we do…
- We believe that each and every child should experience a space for love and learning that inspires their young hearts and minds to grow and develop within a loving, educational and nurturing environment.
- We believe that every family should be supported in their child’s growth and development within a thriving, positive, and inspired environment.
- We believe in the importance of being actively involved within our community as a source of connection, awareness and purpose.
- As industry leaders, we are responsible for demonstrating a higher standard in early childhood education.
We believe it takes a village to raise a child.
Our Family is Like Yours…
We can relate to raising young children because we are parents of little ones ourselves. So we understand what parents are going through! We can share the joy of parenting and the challenges. After years of experience working in this industry, The Akidamy team knew we could do things differently and better.
