About Us

The Uniting Church in Queensland has been serving families through childcare services, run by congregations and other church organisations such as Wesley Mission Queensland and UnitingCare since 1964.

We believe:

In cooperating to make the world a better place
In the inherent value of all people
In the human need for connection, acceptance and trusted relationships
That communities are strengthened when everyone is supported
That by working together we can achieve great things

We value our people, as such:

We focus on continued professional development.
We support your wellbeing through our Employee Assistance Program (EAP) partner, Benestar.
We have a Reward and Recognition framework to recognise and reward individuals and teams for their contributions.
