We're looking for an enthusiastic, adaptable Assistant Teachers to support a mixed-age class of Infants, Toddlers, and preschool (ages 3-6) children in a Montessori environment.
In a Montessori environment, Teacher Assistants carefully prepare an environment that fosters independence and captivates a child's interest. Guides provide personalized support to each child. They offer individual and small-group lessons, showing children how to use the materials and perform activities with them, and giving them precise language to understand their experiences.
Because of the carefully prepared environment and individualized support, children in a Montessori class have tremendous liberty to explore the environment and work on materials of their choice for as long as they want. Most importantly, the support and materials help every child develop skills, confidence, and a firm conviction that they are capable.

- Observe children closely to understand and best meet their needs
- Prepare a beautiful, orderly environment that fosters independence and concentration

- Experience working with children ages 0-6 or prior experience as a nanny, day care worker, nursery, and customer service
- CDA or Associate's Degree with ECE coursework
- Maryland Credentials (45/90 hour course work)
- Are familiar with the development of young children
- Have strong interpersonal skills and a customer-service oriented mindset
- Are willing to grow and learn
- Have a valid negative TB test (in the last 12 months) or are willing to take prior to your state date
- Have a valid CPR certification or are willing to become certified prior to start date
- The opportunity to contribute to a high-quality Montessori program that serves the individual needs of each child
- Fully sponsored Montessori diploma training and ongoing professional development through the Prepared Montessorian Institute
- 75% tuition discount for two children at any school in our network (we serve children from 3-months-old through 12th grade)
- A network of supportive peers and mentors who appreciate your valuable contributions and regularly share best practices
- Abundant career growth and promotion opportunities
- A competitive salary of $17-20 per hour, depending on experience
- Health, dental, and vision insurance
- Paid time off and paid holidays
