  • Experience leading a classroom and creating educational lesson plans. 
  • The ability to meet state requirements for education and our childcare center requirements.
  • The ability to work indoors or outdoors and engage in physical activity with children.

  • Pay $18.52-$19.23 hourly, Bi-weekly and Daily Pay options; based on Position, Education and Experience / any other compensation offered
  • Immediate Health insurance (medical, dental and vision), paid time-off and 401K (plus company match) provided for full-time employees.
