Cook Position

Are you interested in a unique cooking experience? Does the sound of children laughing warm your heart? What about singing toddlers and art deliveries from preschoolers? If this sounds like an environment that would leave you feeling fulfilled, we welcome you to join our diverse team at Parkdale Sherwood Headstart where we all share the common goal of providing quality care and education for children and families.

Preparing nutritious foods is an essential part of caring for young children and supports their growth and development. If you want a job where you contribute to the community while positively impacting the future, and yet are still able to enjoy your evenings and weekends, this could be it!

Having someone reliable and confident in this role is essential for our centre to run efficiently. You will be producing two snacks, and a lunch each day while keeping the kitchen organized, managing your time, balancing tasks, modeling a positive mindset, and enjoying some of those moments unique to a childcare environment. A love for food and the ability to plan and adapt menu options in line with Canada's Food Guide and current Child Care regulations would be an asset as we are always working to best serve the children in our care.

Additional Requirement:

• Current criminal record check and vulnerable sector search
• Valid First aid Certificate
• Food Safety Course
• WHMIS

The above items are essential, but we are happy to help the right person acquire updated courses and certifications. You deserve a workplace that appreciates your unique assets and creativity!

The rate of pay for this position is $17 an hour and your work hours will be 8:30-3:30. Start date is August 31st, 2023.
