Educator Wellbeing & Support

Your Wellbeing Matters! Wellbeing is as a state of feeling good about ourselves. While there are many definitions of wellbeing, it is generally recognised as a complex interplay between physical, psychological, emotional, social and health factors as well as an individual’s culture and values. While you’re putting your energy into creating a positive mental health environment for children and young people, it’s also important to focus on the wellbeing of yourself by:

Maintain a good work life balance

Keep healthy eating habits

Exercise regularly

Find time to relax

Do regular heath checks

Get enough sleep

Find ways to balance work and life demands

Foster and maintain personal relationships

Find ways to manage your stress

Maintain your own interests outside of work

Educators with good wellbeing and mental health are critical to quality education and care and outcomes for children, families and communities. Research shows that mentally healthy workers are more productive and can perform at their best and flourish in all aspects of their life.

We encourage our educators to register with BEYOU, it is the national mental health in education initiative delivered by Beyond Blue, in collaboration with Early Childhood Australia and headspace.
