Classroom Manager, Prekindergarten Classroom
3 months ago
A classroom manager is responsible for all aspects of teaching and overall management and leadership of the classroom and teaching team. Classrooms are typically structured with children from birth to two years (infant classroom), or two to three and a half years, or three and a half years to kindergarten. Responsibilities include: physical caregiving, child development assessments, implementation of age-appropriate, individualized curriculum and environments, facilitating supportive relationships with children, parents, and colleagues, managing and mentoring 2-3 people on the classroom teaching team, implementing systems to deliver quality childcare, and ensuring constant communication flow between administration, the teaching team and parents.
Primary Caregiving
At our Child Development Centers, we understand the importance of a meaningful bond between child and caregiver. These relationships are foundational to our program, and they are an integral piece of high-quality group care. A primary caregiver is a role within the classroom that is specific to classroom managers and primary teachers. Typically, a primary caregiver will adhere to a target ratio of 1:3 for infants, 1:7 with preschoolers, and 1:9 with pre-kindergarten.
- Assign the children in your care to a primary caregiver. Track the development of your primary children, managing their classroom transitions, and coordinate their integration hours.
- If a new family is joining the Child Development Center, primary caregivers are responsible for connecting with the family to review our program and practices. Preschool and Pre-Kindergarten primary caregivers will host a meeting onsite, and infant primary caregivers may conduct a home visit.
- Complete routine assessments of your primary childrens development including learning stories, facilitate parent input using the Ages and Stages Questionnaire and share information during regularly scheduled parent-teacher conferences.
- If needed, facilitate the referral process and individualized interventions with the help of the program manager to make sure each child reaches their developmental potential.
Classroom Management and Practices
The learning that takes place at our Child Development Centers extends beyond the four walls of the classroom. Our children are immersed in emergent curriculum and outdoor exploration that fosters curiosity, joy, and self-expression.
- Ensure a high-quality, developmentally appropriate classroom exists in accordance with Patagonias policies/philosophy and Department of Social Services childcare licensing rules and regulations as outlined by the state.
- Co-create and organize a stimulating and developmentally appropriate learning environment both inside and outside
- Ensure visual supervision and child safety at all times.
- Design emergent curriculum that meets the needs of the individual learning style of the children in your care.
- Form relationships with families, children, and co-teachers that are respectful of individual differences and culture, family styles and cultural/socioeconomic diversity.
- Offer guidance and direction to support the professional development of your teaching team.
- Ensure a structured routine that allows for scheduled meal and rest breaks for the teaching team and maintains a flexible yet consistent daily schedule and routine for the children.
- Provide professional guidance for your team members, including goal setting and performance reviews.
- Implement systems and policies to deliver quality childcare.

- Foster a safe, inclusive environment for children, parents, and teachers.
- Create an environment that embraces open communication and trust between staff to ensure a high-quality environment for children and families.
- Communicate with children using developmentally appropriate language.

- Provide Early Childhood/community resources and share information through a variety of mediums: documentation boards, newsletters, Educa, and emails.
- Serve as the liaison between the classroom, program manager and administrative team to make sure families experience impeccable customer service.
Administrative and Leadership Responsibilities
The team at the Child Development Centers work collaboratively and cross-functionally to provide the highest quality of group care. Leaders in the Family Services Department will look to the staff in the classrooms to support decision-making, team-building, and licensing requirements.
- Ensure the completion of classroom administrative responsibilities in a timely manner such as: managing child files, tracking attendance on Procare, communicating changes to enrollment projections, maintaining daily staff: child ratios, approving PTO and submission of time, and manage and document emergency practice drills.
- Engage in manager trainings and initiatives so that you are prepared to cascade information to your team, ensure adherence to protocols, and provide coaching/direction.
- Evaluate the supply and material needs of classroom and track expenses against the annual classroom budget.
- Lead the onboarding, training, performance management and annual goal setting for teachers who work in the classroom and report to you.
- Plan and lead team meetings and participate in TRCDC leadership team meetings to provide input on decision making.
- Act with urgency and respond thoughtfully to issues or concerns.
