About Us
The Umbrella Tree Child Development Center is a licensed child development center in Long Beach, California, serving children from six weeks through kindergarten. We are built on six core values — Excellence, Equity, Integrity, Compassion, Belonging, and Accountability — and we hold one standard: every child in our care receives the same quality of environment, engagement, and expertise, regardless of background, ability, or funding source.
The Role
The Director of Curriculum is a leadership role at the heart of what makes The Umbrella Tree's classrooms work. You are responsible for building and sustaining our curriculum framework, developing our teachers, and ensuring that what happens in every classroom reflects our standard — not on paper, but in practice, every day.

- Partner with the CEO on program quality, QSLA participation, and institutional improvement
- Maintain current knowledge of best practices in early childhood education, inclusion, and developmental science
- Support hiring processes by contributing to candidate evaluation at the classroom level
What You Bring
- Master's degree in Early Childhood Education, Child Development, or a closely related field
- California Child Development Permit (Site Supervisor or Program Director level) or equivalent credential
- Demonstrated experience developing curriculum in a licensed early childhood setting
- Experience leading adult learning — professional development, coaching, or staff training
- Deep knowledge of inclusion and developmental frameworks; comfort serving children across a wide range of abilities and needs
- Mandated Reporter Training (AB 1432)
- Pediatric CPR/First Aid (current)
- TB clearance
- DOJ/FBI LiveScan fingerprint clearance
- Health Statement per CCLD
What We Offer
- Competitive compensation
- Annual continuing education stipend
- Paid attendance to one conference of your choice per year.
