Job DescriptionJob DescriptionSalary: $11 - $13.50 Hourly DOE

About the Position

Nourish Early Learning is looking for a qualified educator who is a pivotal part of our team 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. 


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 judgment 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
  • Adhering with teaching standards and safety regulations as established by the official sources-i.e. ODJFS
  • Maintaining a safe and clean environment for children to thrive


Requirements

  • Proven experience as a child care / preschool teacher, a plus
  • Knowledge of child development and up-to-date education methods 
  • Strong communication and time management skills
