    About This Role

    Get ready to embark on an adventure filled with crayons, giggles, and the occasional glitter explosion! We’re looking for a Teacher Assistant who’s not just here to help, but to bring a splash of fun and creativity into the classroom! If you can juggle snack time, story time, and the frequent “Where did my shoe go?” moments, then this job is for you!

    Support the development of both typically developing and special needs preschool children within whole group, small group, and one-on-one settings.

    Create a positive and engaging learning environment that fosters curiosity.

    Implement effective classroom management and reinforce routines.

    Value educational and social-emotional care for children 3-5 years old.

    Have the patience to help young children work through big emotions.

    Bring a warm and understanding approach to communicating with children who are learning to communicate themselves.
