Infant Classroom Teacher (Caring & Silly Welcome!)

We're looking for a nurturing, playful, and dedicated teacher to join our Infant Classroom Team! At Goddard OP2, we believe that early care is magical work—full of snuggles, songs, and first milestones. If you're passionate about supporting babies' development in a warm, responsive environment (and don't mind a little drool), we want to meet you!

What You'll Do:

• Provide attentive, loving care to infants age range, 6 weeks to 12 months
• Support each baby's physical, emotional, and cognitive development
• Plan and implement age-appropriate activities (yes, peek-a-boo counts!)
• Maintain a clean, safe, and stimulating classroom environment
• Build strong, trusting relationships with babies and families
• Communicate daily with families about feedings, naps, diapering, and milestones
• Collaborate with a team of teachers who care deeply and laugh often

Who You Are:

• You love babies and understand their needs
• You're playful, silly, and not afraid to get on the floor
• You have a warm, calming presence and a sense of humor
• You're dependable, patient, and a strong communicator
• You value diversity, respect, and inclusive care

Requirements:

• Experience working with infants in a group setting (daycare, preschool, etc.)
• Infant/Toddler coursework or CDA preferred
• CPR/First Aid certification (or willingness to obtain)
• Must meet all state licensing requirements for infant care

Bonus Points If You:

• Can make a baby laugh without trying
• Know every verse to "The Wheels on the Bus"
• Are a snack-time storyteller or diaper-changing DJ

Apply Today! To apply, please send your resume and a short note about what makes you a great fit for an infant classroom (silly stories welcome!). We're excited to grow our team with someone who's as committed to care as they are to joy. Compensation: $16.00 - $19.00 per hour
