Dayton, Ohio, United States Ally Child Care Full time

Ally Child Care is currently looking to add a toddler teacher to our team. We are looking for someone experienced or educated in managing a classroom, using a curriculum, and communicating with families.

Ally Child Care is a small, family-style childcare and learning center in Centerville/Washington Township. Our mission is to be a support to the Ally Community, in whatever ways we can We have small class sizes and low student to teacher ratios, allowing us to do just what our name says: be an ALLY to the children and families we serve. We were licensed in March of 2018, and have soon after expanded adding a brand-new preschool wing. We have a positive atmosphere filled with teachers and admins that truly give their all to make a positive impact on the development and education of the children in our care. We are looking for like-minded individuals as we grow our team, that will continue to make Ally a fun and fullfilling place to work

About the classrooms and work environment:

All of our classrooms use Conscious Discipline as an educational philosophy. If you are not yet familiar with Conscious Discipline, we are happy to teach you. In short, Conscious Discipline says that unless a child feels safe in their environment and loved by those around them, they are not in a brain state to be able to effectively learn. We create these safe and loving environments by instilling consistency and structure. We also build strong individual connections with our students and encourage social connections between peers. We also help children navigate social and emotional situations by adding concrete problem-solving skills to their "tool boxes."

For curriculum, we use The Creative Curriculum. To stay connected with the families we serve, and keep track of each child's daily progress and care, we use the HiMama app.

Our classroom sizes are relatively small compared to other centers. For example, our toddler rooms have 9 or 10 children with 2 teachers rather than 14 or 16 kids with two teachers. We are not a corporation, so we operate with more freedom than most centers and with a family-like feel. While we are a small center, we always have plenty of hard-working teachers and staff to make our days run smoothly, make sure our students are well supported and educated, and to ensure we are exceeding all of our rigorous safety and sanitary policies and procedures, as well as the ODJFS rules and Step Up to Quality requirements.

Who we are looking for:

We are excited to meet our next toddler teacher Our current team is very dedicated to the success of the students. They are willing to learn and grow as a teacher and collaborate with the team to support their class and individual students who require specialized support. They go above and beyond to meet the individual needs of each baby and to support families. Our teachers work together to help everyone in the building, with a no-man-left-behind attitude. They are flexible when situations arise that call for flexibility, and step up to help one another balance their work and home lives. We are looking for the same type of work ethic and like-mindedness in any teachers we add to our team.
