Safety

Every educator is checked by our people.

Software makes the match, but people do the checking. Our compliance team checks registration, right to work, child safety and references before an educator can receive a single offer, and re-checks before anything expires.

Registration verified

State teacher registration (VIT, NESA, QCT and so on) is checked for teachers and ECTs. ACECQA-approved or ES qualifications are confirmed for other roles.

Right to work

Citizenship or visa conditions are confirmed before any offer is sent.

Child safety complete

The state child-safety check is current and the declaration is signed. Early learning educators also hold approved first aid.

References verified

Two professional references are contacted and reviewed by a recruiter.

A real team behind the app

The speed of an app, backed by a team that genuinely cares.

Allocators

Humans who watch every live request and step in the moment an educational setting needs support.

Recruiters

Meet every educator, follow up references and know each one by name.

Compliance

Check every document by hand, and re-check before anything expires.

Questions

Your questions, answered.

The request form is designed to take less than a minute. Your preferred educators see the offer first, followed by verified educators nearby. You can watch the search live, and you'll be notified the moment the shift is filled.

Every educator passes four checks before they can receive an offer: teacher registration with the relevant state or territory authority (VIT, NESA, QCT and so on) for teachers and Early Childhood Teachers (or ACECQA-approved qualifications for early childhood educators, and ES qualifications for support staff), right to work, the current child-safety check for their state (such as a Working with Children Check or Queensland blue card) with a signed child safety declaration, and two professional references reviewed by a recruiter. We re-check before anything expires.

You pay only for approved hours, at an agreed rate for your school. No lock-in contracts and no sign-up fee. One clear invoice arrives each week, payable by bank transfer or online by card or BECS direct debit.

Educators work through I Recruit and are paid weekly through our payroll (Employment Hero), with super paid on time. Talk to our team for the details that apply to your school's sector.

Early learning centres, long day care services and kindergartens (including funded Three- and Four-Year-Old Kinder), plus government, Catholic and independent primary and secondary schools. We're an Australia-wide team placing educators in every state and territory, in cities, regional towns and remote communities.

Yes. Centres book by room and age group, set the qualification level (Certificate III, Diploma or ECT) and any shift times, including 6:30am openers and closers. Fast cover helps you keep every room in ratio.
