Job DescriptionJob Description

Company Overview

The teachers and staff of Devonshire Preschool and Infant Center are dedicated to creating a place where children receive quality care in an environment that is safe, clean and nurturing, with endless opportunities for learning. A place that not only fosters a child’s physical, social, emotional and intellectual development, but that takes it a step further by teaching the basics of discipline, respect and manners as well.

We are committed to providing the best possible care for your child while also being sensitive to your child’s needs. Our philosophy is a “Back to Basics” approach where we provide a safe, clean and stimulating environment for children to play, learn and grow in, while teaching children self-esteem, respect and responsibility. Here they have opportunities they would not encounter in a home setting that will spark their interest, stimulate their curiosity, and invite interaction. Furthermore, our facility allows us to provide parents with a place where all the needs of their child can be met under one roof, including Infant Care, Preschool, and extracurricular classes. Teachers identify learning styles and tailor to maximize learning opportunities.
