Early Learning Center Director, New Hope for Families
1 month ago
Summary
About New Hope for Families
New Hope for Families provides shelter and early learning programs that keep families together and lift children into a promising future.
The New Hope Early Learning Center enrolls up to 48 children ages birth-to-five across our 4 classrooms. We provide child-centered care, focus on developmentally appropriate practices (DAP), and use a continuity of care model that creates secure, thriving relationships between our teachers and children. We reserve at least half of our enrollment spots in each classroom for families who need it most-- families who have experienced homelessness or are at serious risk of homelessness. We couldn’t provide top quality childcare without our outstanding teaching and center support staff, and we are looking for someone with the right skills and experience to lead our superlative team.
About the Job
The Early Learning Center Director manages a team of Lead Teachers (2-3 per classroom), Assistant Teachers (1-2 per classroom), a School Chef, an Assistant Director, and evening cleaning staff. The Early Learning Center Director reports to the Operations Director and Executive Director and receives administrative support from other staff specialists.
The best candidate believes that all children deserve access to excellent early care and education in a play-based, child-centered environment. In addition, they have the experience, formal training (preferably a Bachelors or Master's in Early Learning), self-discipline, and high sense of responsibility needed to lead a team toward that end. The best candidate is conversant with developmental best practices, state regulations, relationship building, and the day-to-day needs of teachers. Furthermore, they have a knack for team building, mentoring staff, and building positive relationships with parents. Moreover, their care for children extends especially to those affected by instability or trauma and they are ready to lead a program that supports families in crisis.
If you are ready to lead a gifted, highly trained, energized team toward our goals of providing top quality childcare that lifts children to a promising future, please apply.
