About us

Bump and Beyond is a privately run, boutique support service for new parents and parents to be. Our aim is to support and educate people through pregnancy, birth and beyond. Established in 2019, we run a popular Mother's Group program as well as workshops and webinars. In 2023 we will continue to grow our programs. Mothers groups will include 10 mums seeking to connect with other expectant parents as they learn more about pregnancy and birth. Each week our facilitator will facilitate an engaging 1.5 hour session on a variety of postnatal related topics such as: starting solids, healthy sleep foundations, physical recovery. Our facilitators will share one of our digital presentations (or introduce our expert guest speakers) and then help our mums discuss the topic with the group after the information session.

We are excited to announce we are looking for someone to join our team!

Bump and Beyond is a small business with a big heart. We offer a unique service and pride ourselves on building quality relationships with clients and staff. We seek to employ enthusiastic, hard-working people who share our values and are passionate about working with new parents. If this sounds like you, please read on to find out how you can join our wonderful team. 

About the role

This is a new position. We require a Facilitator who is approachable, highly organised and passionate about supporting expectant families. Our goal is to welcome clients into a safe, informative and non-judgemental space where they can listen, learn, ask questions and connect with others. We want to help people feel prepared, reduce fear of the unknown and empower them in their decision making surrounding the postnatal period. Please note, as our facilitator you will not be required to counsel or provide any psychological or medical advice. Your role is to share information, listen and refer clients to specialised services should they need further support. This will require a weekly time commitment of 4 hours per week (possibly building to 8 hours per week) at our workshop room in Goodwood. We are open to discussion as to what days and times we offer the program (within reason) to suit our successful candidate. This is a contract position for 8 week with the hope of extension. The position is for a sole trader with potential for renewal based on performance and demand. 

About you

We are looking for a positive, enthusiastic, approachable, extremely organised, confident and reliable person to join our team. Solid knowledge of antenatal and postnatal care.
