Randstad Employee Reviews for Childcare Provider

The payment is great I guess they pay the highest than other agencies. Recently they are not many shifts also sometimes should go far from your place. Some of staff at the centre are so mean to you or very nice to you. You should be patient with new kids you never seen

Pros

Free lunches, pretty chill co-workers. Everyone was pretty respectful.

Cons

Hours are too short :')

Interesting and fun workplace

Childcare Relief Assistant (Former Employee) - Wellington NSW - 3 April 2018

I enjoyed working here with children as well as the staff of each childcare centers i attend to. Since I've been working at this company I've learned the importance of making sure everyone is treated fairly and also multitasking with diapers, feeding schedules, and daily activities the kids have. The hardest part of my job is never knowing what my day is going to be like and where i am being placed . However, my most enjoyable part of this job is taking care of the kids making sure they are changed, fed and happy and safe.

Pros

free lunch and breakfast

Cons

no paid time off

Communication

Childcare (Former Employee) - Melbourne VIC - 13 January 2018

Signed up but never given any work. Sent to 1 interview which was never followed up. Found a job on my own. Disapointed in the lack of communication and help with finding temporary or permanant work.

Good

Childcare Assistant (Former Employee) - WA - 4 January 2017

I found that in the short time I was working for randstad I had a lot of work and assistance from the recruitment. A typical day at work was fun as I love working with children. Management was helpful I didn't have co-workers from Randstad and on the odd occasion I did they were lovely Getting the early morning/last minute phone call was the hardest part of the job The most enjoyable was meeting new people

Flexable and friendly staff

Childcare Assistant (Former Employee) - sydney - 18 October 2016

I worked for them in Australia and the staff are very nice and understanding of your part time agreement and giving you time off when studying. When you get called out to jobs people are always very happy to see you as you usually walk into a situation where a center in under staffed as someone has just called in sick.

Pros

flexability

Cons

unreliable work

Great Experience an Great Work Enviorment

Relief Childcare Assistant (Current Employee) - Perth WA - 20 August 2013

A typical work day is caring for children. I have learnt about begin a relief is that all centers are different. The hardest part of my job is saying goodbye to the children And the best part of my job is when you walk in the room and the children s faces light up when they see you.
