As Director, you’ll lead a team of educators, support the development of young learners, and ensure your center runs smoothly and successfully every day.

What We’re Looking For:

  • Minimum 2 years of experience as a Director
  • Bachelor’s degree (or higher) in Early Childhood Education or related field
  • Strong leadership and communication skills
  • Flexibility to work between 7:00 AM – 6:00 PM, depending on center needs

What We Offer:

  • Salary: $50,000–$55,000 per year, based on experience and qualifications
  • Benefits: Health, dental, and vision insurance, PTO, 401(k), and discounted childcare
  • A collaborative, supportive company culture
  • Real opportunities for professional growth as we continue to expand
