About the Position

Nourish Early Learning is looking for qualified assistants who are a pivotal part of our team, assisting the leads in teaching and supervising while also motivating the children to use their mental capacities and exercise their imagination. Early learning is a unique time in development and our desire is to support children in expanding their independence while building further curiosity and deeper understanding of the world around them. Our goal is that our assistants begin as apprentices to learn the philosophy of Nourish and our holistic view of the child.


A wonderful fit for this position would:

  • have a deep love of children, the way their minds work and the magic they create
  • connect with young children quickly through a wide range of methods
    (stories, media, indoor or outdoor games, drawing, etc)
  • be courageous in silliness, sustain high energy levels, and have some dance moves
  • recognize children's intuitive need for individualization, and meet this need with connection on their level
  • be attuned to your surroundings and can recognize the most important need of your lead teacher in the moment, both methodical and creative
  • rather ask than assume, and you understand that open and honest communication can move a class forward
  • want to support a lead teacher by reading and assisting in the execution of lesson plans
  • be looking to learn about child development, assisting with ideas towards the vision of the classroom and the individual needs of each child
  • calmly approach children who may be using unsafe behavior by speaking to them on their level and using age-appropriate, respectful language and tone
  • love to be empowered to come into work better the next day, knowing you use your best judgement to make decisions without constantly seeking permission
  • want to connect with parents in the community and want to encourage their involvement in the classroom
  • be proactive and willing to be coached
  • see a 2-5 minute job and think “yes, that is something I can and will complete”(includes, but not limited to: taking out the trash, wiping down tables, filling water cups, changing toilet paper, sweeping the floor)
  • want to be a part of loving community of co-workers who support each other’s growth and mutually respect each other’s well-beings
  • love the question “how can I help you today?”
  • be patient, flexible and kind


Responsibilities

  • assist the lead teacher in planning and implementing a curriculum that is developmentally appropriate and meets the state standards and the stated philosophy of Nourish Early Learning
  • assist the teacher in planning and implementing appropriate field trips

  • providing basic physical, emotional and spiritual care and caregiving activities

  • maintaining a safe and clean environment for children to thrive


Requirements

  • Proven experience as a child care / preschool teacher, a plus
