$18 - $21 per hour

Responsive Recruiter

We're looking for a cook who loves working with young children and takes food safety seriously. You'll prepare meals and snacks for about 100 students across our infant, toddler, preschool, and pre-kindergarten classrooms, working from weekly menus with strict allergen protocols (our kitchen is nut-free, no exceptions).

What you'll do:

  • Prepare and serve breakfast, lunch, and snacks following our balanced menu
  • Track and manage food allergies and dietary restrictions across classrooms
  • Keep the kitchen nut-free and allergen-safe at all times
  • Help plan food orders and portion amounts
  • Work alongside our leadership team on menu planning, ensuring that each meal meets state requirements

What we're looking for:

  • 1-3 years of food service or cooking experience (school/childcare kitchen experience a plus, but not required)
  • Comfortable managing allergies and food restrictions carefully and consistently
  • Able to lift up to 35 lbs
  • Reliable, on time, and comfortable working in a small kitchen team

Schedule:

Monday-Friday, set daytime hours no nights, no weekends, no rotating schedule.

Pay & Benefits:

  • $18-21/hr, based on experience
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Paid time off (up to 4 weeks) plus paid holidays
  • Tuition discount for your own children
  • Free meals and snacks, free uniforms

Interviews are scheduled quickly most candidates hear back within a day or two of applying, and we'll confirm your interview time by text the day before. If this sounds like your kind of kitchen, we'd love to talk!
