Opokaa’sin requires a Childcare Educator to be responsible for guiding and nurturing children, from 19 months to 5 years of age, in a holistic approach to play based learning through an Indigenous lens.

Childcare Educators not only nurture and support children’s development during hygiene, feeding, exercise and play times, but they are also building meaningful relationships as co-learners, co-researchers, and co-imaginer of possibilities with the children and families they serve. Typical day-to-day activities might include developing the child's language through sharing of stories, or improving their social skills by exploring different teamwork projects, like building sandcastles together. They may also provide children with creative activities to explore such as painting or dancing, keeping children active, stimulated and learning - creating a warm, safe and engaging atmosphere.
