Childcare
Australia is one of the leaders in early childhood care and education in the world. Childcare is a highly regulated industry due to its nature of dealing with such a vulnerable young cohort.
Given the number of Australian families where parents are working full-time is on the increase, there is an consequently an increasing demand for Child Care Centres and those who work within them.
MMRecruitment is able to provide skilled, motivated, and highly enthusiastic, candidates with good English, many of whom are already studying in Australia, or are Early Childhood Teachers from overseas seeking opportunities outside of their own countries. We are able to assist in finding the appropriate immigration pathways in the maze of ongoing red tape and bureaucracy in this area.
