Subject: Now Hiring at Best Start Brickfield — Early Years Educators
Brickfield, Dublin
Be Heard. Be Valued. Be Happy. You Matter.
We are growing the team at our brand new Brickfield branch and currently recruiting two full-time educators for our Ages 1–2 or Ages 2–3 Rooms. Both positions are open at Graduate Early Years Educator or Early Years Educator level. If you are a warm, enthusiastic Early Years professional looking for a setting where your work is genuinely valued and your professional development is taken seriously — we would love to hear from you.
★ QUALITY AT BEST START — A 5-YEAR BETTER START PARTNERSHIP
Best Start has worked with the Better Start Quality Mentoring Service for the last 5 years across our established branches, building a strong culture of reflective practice, professional development, and continuous improvement.
Our Brickfield branch is a brand new, purpose-fitted setting now beginning its own Better Start engagement. Joining Brickfield means you'll benefit from expert mentoring, structured CPD, and the opportunity to help shape practice in a fresh, modern environment from the ground up.
OPEN ROLES — Full-Time, Immediate Start (Brickfield)
Early Years Educator — Ages 1–2 or Ages 2–3 Room
Deliver warm, responsive, play-based care and Aistear-aligned learning for our youngest children — supporting early language, movement, secure attachments, growing independence, and social skills through play.
Both positions are open at two levels:
- Graduate Early Years Educator — QQI Level 7/8 (or recognised equivalent) in Early Childhood Care & Education
- Early Years Educator — QQI Level 5/6 in Early Childhood Care & Education
Newly-qualified and experienced candidates are equally welcome. We're looking for a warm, patient, team-focused attitude, working knowledge of Aistear and Síolta, and the right to work in Ireland — experience with the under-3s is a plus, but what matters most to us is professionalism and a genuine love of working with very young children.
