Duties 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.

A passion for working with young children; a view of children as highly capable, active participants in their own learning, and a commitment to provide them with the best possible care.

Flexible, able to adapt to diverse situations that may arise. Self-motivated--take initiative to fulfill typical responsibilities and help out in other ways as needed.
