Homeschooling​/Nanny

We're looking for an experienced, AMI- or AMS-trained Montessori guide to lead a high-fidelity summer program for 2–3 children, ages 5–6, in a prepared environment.

Session 1:
July 5–31 | Session 2:
August 1–21
Monday–Friday, 9:00 AM – 2:00 PM

Flexible. We have homes in Santa Barbara/Ojai/Ventura and Marin County, CA. If you're based elsewhere and your location is a great place to spend the summer, we're open to coming to you.

You'll design and facilitate a genuine Montessori work cycle for a tiny cohort — not a watered-down camp, but a real classroom experience. This includes preparing the environment with appropriate materials across practical life, sensorial, language, math, and cultural areas; observing each child and following their developmental needs; and maintaining the unhurried, child-led rhythm that defines authentic Montessori practice. We'll cover all the costs of the materials.

• AMI or AMS primary or early elementary certification
• Experience leading or co-leading a Montessori classroom
• Deep understanding of the normalized work cycle and how to protect it
• Comfort working independently with a very small group
• Warmth, groundedness, and genuine respect for children's autonomy

Happy to pay a very competitive daily rate, commensurate with experience. If we travel to your location, we handle our own housing and logistics.
