Early Childhood Teachers
Did you know our early education centres have university-qualified teachers delivering our programs? The contributions they make are immeasurable. Under their guidance, your child will be introduced to new experiences, environments and routines that will assist with a smooth transition to formal schooling.
Our Early Childhood Teachers work hard every day to develop your child’s language, physical, cognitive, social and emotional regulation skills in both one-on-one and group settings.

In every Pelicans early learning centre, there is a team of passionate and trained educators ready to inspire and nurture your child from day one all the way through to their kindergarten and preschool end-of-year celebration.
