Trusted Staffing Partner. Active Sector
Advocate.
Talent Now is a proud member of the Australian Childcare Alliance and a passionate advocate for Australia’s early learning sector.
We understand the challenges services face - finding quality educators, rising wages, ongoing staff shortages, and compliance pressures. That’s why we exist: to make staffing simpler, more affordable, and more reliable.
Whether you need a casual to cover tomorrow’s shift, a Diploma to step in for a few weeks, or a new permanent team member, Talent Now is here to support you.
We offer two flexible casual staffing models so you can choose what best suits your budget and processes:
Casual Connect - You Pay Educators.
Our most affordable and flexible model, ideal for services looking to minimise costs, with a flat daily booking fee from just $31/day.
Casual Hire - We Pay Educators.
We employ the educator, manage payroll and admin - you focus on what matters most – quality care.
We also help services build their dream teams with Permanent Placements, backed by a refund guarantee for peace of mind.
We believe our rates are the most competitive in the sector. Compare your agency fees with Talent Now by clicking the button below. You'll find the numbers speak for themselves.
More than a staffing platform - we’re advocates for the sector
At Talent Now, we don’t just fill shifts, we stand with the sector. We're actively engaged with workforce consultations, regulatory changes, and wage reform advocacy to ensure educators and services have a voice. Our team publishes practical guides, wage tools, and resources to help you stay compliant, confident, and ahead of change.
