Hi there!
We are a certified in-home daycare in NE Portland. We have been busy growing for the past ten years and are looking for a lead teacher for our children aged 6 months to 3 years. Our classroom typically has between 8 and 12 kiddos and our child:teacher ratio istypically between 4:1 or 3:1. Our program is play based and child lead but coordinating games, songs and crafts is a creative part of our lead teachers day. We have a sunny, comfortable home in NE Portland and a fantastic community of families and friends. The hours are 9-5 Monday-Thursday with occasional half days on Fridays. We have three paid weeks off (one week in summer, one week in spring and between Christmas Eve and New Years Day) in addition to some paid PPS holidays. Compensation is $21.35/hr. Position available 4/1/25 with training beginning in March.
Requirements:
Willingness to complete 30 hours of infant training and 20 hours of toddler training within the first years. One year commitment.
