You're the heart and soul of your school. You'll lead by example, creating a warm, inclusive environment where staff, parents, and children feel valued and respected. Your top priority? Ensuring safety, health, and well-being through clear protocols and hands-on leadership.

You'll drive enrollment growth, craft engaging activities that spark curiosity and a love of learning, and manage the day-to-day demands of running your school with confidence and pride. Supported by a dedicated team, you'll steer your center toward success while nurturing the growth of children and educators alike.

What You'll Do:

  • Lead and inspire a talented team of educators, fostering collaboration and a positive culture
  • Implement and maintain health, safety, and licensing standards that keep kids safe and happy
  • Strategically grow enrollment through effective marketing and community outreach
  • Manage daily school operations, from staffing and budgeting to parent communications and record-keeping
  • Cultivate an environment rich with learning opportunities, special events, and joyful experiences
  • Serve as the face of your school -- building strong relationships with families and community partners

What We Offer:

  • Quarterly bonuses that reward your leadership and success
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision plans
  • Paid holidays, vacation, and sick time to recharge and refresh
  • Childcare tuition discounts -- because your family matters, too!
  • Professional development and education assistance to help you grow your career
  • 401(k) with employer contributions to help you plan for your future

Who We're Looking For:

  • Proven leadership experience in early childhood education -- 3+ years preferred
  • Degree or certification in Early Childhood Education or related field preferred
  • Strong communication and organizational skills paired with a passion for children and families
  • Ability to multitask and adapt in a fast-paced environment
  • A hands-on leader who's ready to jump in wherever needed

Why You'll Love It Here:

At Child Development Schools, we're a family that champions innovation, respect, and growth. Join us if you're ready to lead with heart, inspire a team, and make a lasting impact in the lives of children and families every single day.
