In 2018 we achieved an Exceeding rating in all 7 areas of the National Quality Framework from the Department of Education and Training. We are located close to the historic Abbotsford Convent Arts Precinct, Sophia Mundi Steiner School and Collingwood College. Little Sophia has been part of this community for 25 years. We offer playgroup and two Steiner Association approved all-day kindergarten programs. The quality and depth of our experience is demonstrated by the care and love our community of educators, office staff and families bring to our kindergarten and the warmth and joy they take home. Little Sophia has two rooms, Dragonfly and Kingfisher, catering for 19 and 20 children respectively each per day. Little Sophia has a team of approximately14 dedicated staff and approximately 70 families that use our service each week.
We are looking for a joyful and enthusiastic person who loves children and is deeply interested in the domestic activity surrounding early childhood such as cooking, gardening, music, storytelling and handcrafts. The successful applicant is committed to Anthroposophy and ongoing self-development and has knowledge of Steiner Early Childhood Education.

A key component of their day is the preparation and care of food and its consumption.
