Looking for a meaningful job, full of fun and never a dull moment? Come join our team!
We are not your average childcare. Here is why Spokane Falls Montessori is different:
- Positive and welcoming working environment—all staff are valued and honored for their unique and abilities and skills
- Supportive and generous parents and families
- Montessori children are more independent, driven, and task-orientated making our classrooms calmer and more peaceful than a traditional preschool
- We use primary care groups so each teacher has a small amount of children they get to teach, bond with, and enjoy!
- We have low ratios (1:4 infant, 1:5 toddler, 1:8 preschool)
- We practice positive discipline and actively engage with children making transitions and teachable moments less tense and stressful
- We have a competitive wage scale in which pay rates are reflected by position and education qualifications
- A raise will be granted after initial training requirements are complete
- We close for most holidays as well as for Spring Break and Winter Break
- Schedules are consistent
- Unless specifically hired to work in multiple classrooms, you will consistently be in the classroom you were hired for
- We are rated highly in Early Achievers
- Access to the EAG scholarships for pursuit of an approved Early Childhood Education stackable certificate or associate degree (stipulations apply)
What we will ask of you:
- No experience in Montessori? Not a problem! We will train the right person. We will even pay for your Montessori teaching certificate if you are interested (conditions apply)
- Submit and pass a background check through MERIT upon submitting a resume
- Complete other DCYF requirements within a timely manner
- Be 18 years of age or older
- Be reliable
- Be able to lift up to 40 pounds
- Be able to get up and down from the floor, and sit on the floor for extended periods
- Be kind, caring, consistent, and compassionate!
