As an early childhood educator, you’ll support the development of our next generation of dreamers, thinkers and game-changers.
In this significant career, you’ll provide care and education to children throughout the first five years of their life. These years are some of the most important for nurturing cognitive development in a child’s life.
For young children, the entire world around them is new. Each day is brimming with new experiences, encounters and concepts. As a result, this is a vitally important time for brain and cognitive development.
Cognitive development is the process by which human beings acquire, organise, and learn to use knowledge. During the first five years, children’s brains develop at one of the fastest rates they will experience during their lifespan.
A study from Harvard University found that nurturing child development is the ‘foundation for a prosperous and sustainable society’. For these reasons, well-informed Early Childhood Education is essential. As an educator, you’ll have the chance to help children seek the best start to life and also to help make a lasting impact on future communities.
In addition to this, you will also be one of the first relationships a young child forms outside of the home. You’ll help children establish social connections, celebrate milestones, encourage motor skill development and help them become part of their first community. At the end of every day, you can go home knowing you’ve made a genuine difference to someone’s life – and even society.
For such a valuable career, it’s important to study a course that’s been put together by experienced practitioners. Industry experts have designed our Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood Education) to help support your learning.

Just as the first years of a child’s life are fundamental to their development, so too are the early years of your career.
