What the day looks like

Circle time, art, music, and movement with kids who are thrilled to see you. Meals, naps, and diapers, the honest parts of the job. Supporting infant, toddler, and preschool rooms depending on the day. Passing along what you notice to the lead teacher. Our curriculum is built around performing arts, so if you can sing off-key in front of a room of two-year-olds, you will do well here.
