✦ Celebrations are in full swing! We are proud to share that TG’s Child Care has been named Employer of Choice (Large Business) and received Highly Commended honours in both Excellence in Professional Services and Excellence in Large Business at the 2025 Coastline Bank Wauchope & Hinterland Business Awards (NSW Business Chamber Aligned Awards).
These awards are more than trophies. They are a testament to the heart, professionalism, and dedication of the incredible Educators at TG's Child Care. And TG's is opening their arms to welcome more Educators to join their award-winning team.
Award-Winning for a Reason
The judges recognised TG’s for:
Outstanding Workplace Culture – With a staff turnover rate of just over 10% (less than half the sector average), TG’s is a place where people build long, fulfilling careers.
Sector-Leading Quality – TG’s Riverbreeze and TG's Hastings St hold Exceeding ratings in all seven National Quality Standard areas, placing us in the top 10% of providers nationwide.
Community Connection – TG's is not just a childcare provider – they are a trusted community hub, collaborating with local businesses, First Nations artists and Elders, allied health services, and schools.
TG’s triple win is no accident. It’s the result of over 25 years of building a culture of quality, care, and continuous improvement, guided by a university-qualified Early Childhood Teacher with a background in Community-Based services, Gayle Kee. These solid foundations have ensured TG’s not only thrives in the present but is well-positioned to flourish for decades to come.
Locally-owned and operated TG’s Child Care at Riverbreeze and Hasting St, Wauchope stood out for its rare achievement of Exceeding ratings in all seven National Quality Standard areas, placing the centres among the top 10% nationally. This excellence comes from robust governance, weekly policy reviews, and a Critical Reflection Diary that keeps every Educator connected to best practice. Add to that a deeply supportive leadership team, strong succession planning, and meaningful community partnerships, and it’s clear why TG’s is recognised as a benchmark for professionalism in Early Childhood Education.
Why TG’s is the Place to Be
Working at TG’s isn’t just a job. It’s a career where skills are nurtured, wellbeing is valued, and purpose is clear, which is to make a lasting difference in the lives of children and families.
Here’s why the TG's team stays, grows, and thrives:
Growing From Within: Many of TG's Educators start as trainees and progress to leadership roles like Educational Leader or Centre Manager, supported by funded qualifications and mentoring.
The TG’s Way: TG's values of Love, Trust, Respect, Compassion, and FUN aren’t just words. They’re lived every day in their three Foundation Stones: Building Relationships, Understanding Our Gifts, and Collective Thinking.
Inclusive by Nature: TG’s welcomes Educators from all walks of life, embracing diversity in age, culture, gender, and ability. Thoughtful adjustments ensure every team member can shine.
Nature and Nurture: From bush kindy and composting to mindfulness programs and cultural celebrations, children and Educators learn and thrive in enriching, eco-intelligent environments.
