Summary

About Us

Blakemore Children's Center is looking for a full time preschool teacher Come join our collaborative team of educators who seek out opportunities to spark wonder as they learn along with children ages 2.5-5 years old. Are you looking for professional growth in your early childhood teaching journey? We value your experiences with children and your input, and are looking for someone who can combine that experience with a willingness to learn. Blakemore seeks to create collaboration on all levels-between children, educators, parents, and even the classroom environment.

Duties

Job Specifics

  • Location: Blakemore Children's Center is located in Nashville's West End adjacent to Elmington Park and right off of 440

  • Teaching team: work with a team of 3-5 early childhood educators in a collaborative environment
  • Typical shift: Monday-Friday 9-5:30 with a half hour paid break

What is a typical day like?

Because we base the experiences we offer children on what they show an interest and passion for, no two days are exactly alike. We have predictable routines in place like meal times and potty, but there is a lot of freedom for educators to collaboratively create dynamic experiences for children. Teachers have a responsibility to diligently supervise children so that they are safe and well cared for. The preschool space is in a house which is used like one classroom, and this contributes to the home-like atmosphere. We believe that anything that can be done inside can be duplicated outside, so we spend large amounts of time outside on the playground.
