  • Family & Community Engagement: Foster positive relationships with children’s families through respectful communication and shared insights about their child’s progress. Facilitate a collaborative environment that involves parents in the learning process.

  • Health & Infection Control: Implement strict hygiene protocols, including routine cleaning and sanitization of classroom materials and surfaces. Monitor environmental safety and respond promptly to any maintenance or safety concerns.

  • Regulatory Compliance: Follow all licensing, accreditation, and statutory requirements. Maintain accurate records and reports for internal review and compliance authorities.

    • Physical ability to perform routine tasks such as bending, climbing, and supervising active children.
    • Ability to handle multiple responsibilities while maintaining a calm and professional demeanor.

Work Schedule & Compensation:
