You are a strong fit if you:
- See children as capable and curious, not something to control
- Value a clean, organized, and peaceful classroom
- Lead with consistency in and out of the classroom, warmth, professionalism, and follow-through
- Are reflective, growth-minded, and open to learning
- Provide unreasonable hospitality and customer service to families and other stakeholders
Expectations
- Maintain a calm, engaging classroom environment
- Support learning through observation, play, and exploration
- Communicate clearly and professionally with families
- Take ownership of your space, materials, and daily routines
This is NOT for you if:
- You prefer chaotic or heavily teacher-directed classrooms
- You struggle with organization, cleanliness, or attention to detail
- You’re looking for “just a job” rather than meaningful work
- You offer only mediocre customer service for children and their families
- You are not open to feedback or growth
- You only want to do controlled or handprint art experiences
