Our teachers are professionals who bring energy, creativity, and heart to the classroom — and we can’t wait to welcome you to our team.

Observe and document children’s progress; share milestones and daily updates with families through communication apps or written reports. Collaborate with teaching assistants, directors, and support staff to ensure a smooth, high-quality classroom experience. Maintain compliance with licensing regulations, center policies and health & safety standards. What We’re Looking For No credentials are required but a CDA with strong classroom experience.

Deep understanding of developmental milestones for toddlers and preschoolers, and the ability to differentiate instruction for mixed ages. A positive attitude, flexibility, and a true love for supporting young learners. Excellent communication skills and the ability to build strong relationships with families and co-workers. Current CPR/First Aid certification (or willingness to obtain) and ability to meet state background requirements. What You’ll Gain Competitive pay and comprehensive benefits (health, PTO, retirement plan, and childcare discounts). Ongoing training and professional development — we invest in your growth.
