Job Description

Do you love working with children, preserving the magic of childhood and helping little learners discover what they can do for themselves?

Montessori Beginnings is looking for you, especially if you are an enthusiastic, nurturing, and dependable teacher who brings positive energy, creativity, and initiative to the classroom.

At Montessori Beginnings, we believe in respecting the child—knowing when to guide, when to observe, and when to step back so children can experience the joy of doing things for themselves.

We also believe great classrooms are built through teamwork, communication, and a shared commitment to helping every child grow and thrive.

What You'll Do

• Create a warm, engaging child-centered classroom that encourages independence and exploration.

• Plan meaningful, age-appropriate learning experiences and maintain consistant, positive daily routines.

• Observe and support each child's development.

• Collaborate with colleagues and communicate warmly with families.

• Support daily care, including toileting, diapering, meals, and outdoor play.

• Maintain a safe, organized environment that meets EEC licensing requirements.

What We're Looking For

• Massachusetts EEC Teacher certification appropriate for toddlers.

• At least one year of early childhood classroom experience.

• A dependable, punctual team player who communicates openly, collaborates with colleagues, and takes initiative.

• A warm, energetic personality and a genuine love for young children.

• Montessori experience is a plus, but not required.

• CPR and First Aid certification, or willingness to complete employer-paid training.

• Ability to regularly get up and down from the floor and safely lift up to 50 pounds, with or without reasonable accommodation.

Schedule & Benefits

Monday–Friday | Approximately 8:30 AM–4:30 PM

35–40 hours per week, depending on scheduling needs.

• Employer contribution toward health and dental insurance for eligible employees

• Paid personal and vacation time

• Financial support for continuing education and professional development

• Employer-paid CPR and First Aid training

• A supportive, collaborative teaching environment
