Nido Community Assistant Teacher

2 months ago


Denver, United States Montessori Academy of Colorado Full time
Job DescriptionJob DescriptionSalary: $18.30-$21.00 per hour

The Montessori Academy of Colorado is a metropolitan school that engages each child through innovative academics, exploration of character, and a fearless, forward mindset.


Job Title: Nido Community Assistant Teacher

Department: Nido Community

Reports To: Lower Division Director   

Employee Classification: Full-Time, Non-Exempt

Salary Range: $18.30-$21.00 per hour

Daily Schedule: Monday-Friday 8:45am-5:30pm (with a 45 minute break)


Job Summary

The Nido Community Support works alongside the Nido Community Support team, assisting in our 3 infant classrooms. As a Nido Community Support team member, one has to be especially patient and compassionate. Under the guidance of the classroom teachers, it is important to maintain an open, loving and cooperative environment for the Nido community and staff. The ideal candidate has a love for this stage in development, and the ability to assist the students with their most personal needs such as diapering, feeding, washing, and dressing. 


Job Duties and Responsibilities

  • Help maintain the prepared environment according to the specifics provided by the school and lead teacher.
  • Engage with the students and meet the needs of each child enrolled in the classroom.
  • Communicate with the children using language and tone of voice that is authentic, natural and, most importantly, kind.
  • Promote feelings of security and trust in Nido by encouraging and supporting them when necessary through activities.
  • Seek balance when supporting Nido: avoid over-assisting or abandonment while children are practicing new skills (dressing, putting on shoes, face washing, nose wiping, etc.). Remember the credo should be “help me help myself to learn to do it well.” Ensure the children are clean and well cared for regarding diapering, feeding, handwashing, and mucus.
  • Respond quickly and in a soothing fashion to distressed infants and ensure that they are comforted immediately.
  • Follow the children and the energy of the classroom to determine the needs of the students.
  • Be available, present, and focused on the children during daily transitions (i.e., work cycle, walks, outside time, lunch, and naps).
  • Perform cleaning and maintenance necessary to keep the classroom and common spaces clean, beautiful, and safe.
  • Maintain a positive work environment among all staff that is professional, kind, and inclusive. 
  • Support classroom staff lunch breaks.


Qualifications

  • Must be at least 18 and have one of the following:
    • A Bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university
    • A 2 year college degree in child development or early childhood education from an accredited college or university or actively pursuing a degree
    • A current certification as a Child Development Associate (CDA) or Certified Childcare Professional (CCP) or other Department-approved credential
    • Qualify as a professional child care assistant through a combination of hours and verifiable experience in a professional child care setting
    • Experience working with Infant Aged children (8 weeks- 24 months old)
  • Professionalism, including attendance, positivity, and flexibility.
  • Strong communication skills.
  • High-energy and enthusiastic about working in an fast-paced environment.
  • Criminal background check required upon hire.
