Your Role

We're looking for an enthusiastic, adaptable Assistant Teacher to support a mixed-age class, Toddlers in a Montessori environment.

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
• Provide individual and small-group lessons to support each child's development
• Form personal connections with each child and cultivate a community of collaboration and respect

An ideal candidate has:
• Native Spanish Speaker
• Experience working with children ages 0-6
• Prior experience as a nanny, babysitter, education and or customer service

What we offer:
• 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
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Paid time off and paid holidays
