Assistant Teacher

We are looking for individuals with a strong work ethic and a passion for working with young children (ages 6 weeks-5 years) in our NAEYC accredited Early Childhood Center. Do you love little kids? Are you organized, dependable, creative, nurturing, energetic, and excited to work in a team? Come join us and get paid to play!
