Successful childcare is looking for part time assistant teacher

[WSVicky]

We are looking for an assistant teacher to work roughly 28-30 hours a week. The schedule we have in mind is Mon/Tues/Thurs 2:00 PM-6:00 PM and Wed/Fri 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM (with a lunch hour), but we can be flexible with the right candidate. We may be able to offer additional hours to cover when other staff members are on vacation.

We are a West Seattle Family Childcare with three other full time staff members who have many years of experience working in childcare settings. We host 12 children a day from infants to 5 year olds and offer a comfortable, enjoyable workplace where children can grow and learn. We utilize a strong play-based curriculum and use exploration as the method to teaching skills and lessons. We focus on helping our kids with the expression of emotion and positive discipline. We would welcome any candidate who has experiences in these areas, but we are also happy to teach our new assistant. The role of the assistant is to pitch in as needed – reading books, crawling on the floor, asking kids questions about their block towers, watch the kids in our large yard, go on fieldtrips, changing diapers, help with meals, and light cleaning. All of our staff members and children are expected to help keep our classroom and outside space neat and tidy.

Upon start, you will need a negative Tuberculous (TB) test, pass a Background Check, become certified in First Aid/CPR, get a food handlers permit, and meet other training requirements. We will pay for all tests/checks/trainings needed. Must be able to do all physical tasks necessary for playing with and caring for babies and toddlers including lifting up to 30lbs. Must be able to read, write and speak English. Preference is given to Spanish speaking candidates.

Please email me with your resume or a cover letter describing your experiences/interest in this position. Please also include your contact information so we can schedule an in-person interview. Thank you for your time.
