Under the Magic Pine Tree is looking for a dependable, curious, and caring person to join our Gardnerville preschool team.
Some of our strongest teachers began in support roles, learned alongside experienced educators, and grew into leading their own classrooms. What matters most to us is finding someone who genuinely enjoys young children, wants to learn, can be counted on by their team, and is interested in becoming really good at this work.

What teaching looks like at Under the Magic Pine Tree
We are a Reggio-inspired early childhood program serving children from infancy through age five. We believe children are capable, curious learners—and that a teacher's job is much more than supervising children or keeping them busy.
Our teachers build relationships, observe children's interests, create engaging environments, ask questions, explore alongside children, and help children learn how to navigate relationships, emotions, challenges, and the world around them.
Genuinely enjoy spending your day with young children.

• Are dependable and understand that your coworkers and children count on you to be at work.
• Stay calm, respectful, and kind even when a child is having a difficult moment.
• Are curious about why children behave, communicate, and learn the way they do.
• Are willing to clean, organize, reset environments, change diapers or assist with toileting, prepare meals/snacks, and do the less glamorous parts of caring for young children.
• As a Preschool Teacher, you will work alongside other educators to:
• Build warm, responsive relationships with children.
• Engage with children throughout play, routines, meals, outdoor time, and learning experiences.
• Help create inviting classroom environments and learning experiences based on children's development and interests.
• Support children as they learn to communicate, solve problems, regulate emotions, and build relationships.
• Participate in ongoing training, coaching, and professional development.
• Communicate and collaborate with your teaching team and school leadership.
• Want to grow in early childhood education?

We love developing teachers.
Employees who demonstrate reliability, professionalism, strong relationships with children, teamwork, coachability, and initiative may have opportunities to take on additional responsibilities and pursue leadership roles.
We also offer professional development and apprenticeship pathways that can help employees build early childhood credentials while working.

If that sounds like the kind of teacher you'd like to become, we'd love to meet you.
