Build a brighter future for all children!
Teaching is more than a job. It’s an opportunity to foster curiosity, creativity and compassion in children—all while helping them develop a lifelong love of learning.
As an After School Teacher, which we call an Explorer Teacher at Primrose School of Fishers Parkside , you’ll help care for little ones aged 5 to 10 who are enrolled in our after school program. You’ll implement a fun and flexible curriculum with student-led projects that focus on leadership, character development and design thinking.
This position is Monday through Friday. Shifts are flexible, but generally begin at 2:00 p.m. and end at 6 p.m. The Explorer after-school day is 2:30-6:00, but we can shift position start earlier if desired to be full time. (full time for benefits would be 11:30-6:00) No nights, No weekends!

Make a difference every day. 

• Spend your days building genuine relationships with each child.
• Help children learn and explore in the areas that interest them, from technology to art and more.
• Maintain a well-kept classroom that encourages children to create, explore and make decisions with confidence.

Get everything you need to give children everything they need.
At Primrose School of Fishers Parkside , you bring the passion, and we’ll give you all the tools and training to be successful.
Our Balanced Learning® approach was developed with early learning experts. It provides clear daily plans so you can focus your time in the classroom on forming connections with the children—and spend your time outside of school focused on yourself.
