About The Position

More than a job—it’s a chance to shape the future! Small Hands Big Dreams Child Care Center has nearly 25 years of the highest ranked quality rating in the state, delivering only the best childcare and education. As an assistant teacher you can help to set the foundation for our future. Work within a company that has been voted by their employees for multiple years as an employer of choice. We are not your average daycare! Small Hands Big Dreams provides a flexible, fun and family focused atmosphere with many levels of support. You become part of a team who demonstrate integrity, innovation, and passionate customer service. We also have FUN every day. For example, you may wear your pajamas to work one day and parade around the center in some Mickey ears the next day with the kids! When you join Small Hands Big Dreams, your training will not only be interactive and fun, but it will be individualized for you to be successful in your classroom. We are a family-owned center who still has a long, and growing, list of benefits and an owner who knows and is involved in current early childhood education who you will interact with often. Every weekday, from the minute you step into the classroom you’ll be greeted with smiles and hugs and until the moment you walk out you will be building strong relationships with not only the children but families as well. And on the weekends and evenings? That’s your time! Recharge, relax, have your own fun (and maybe with a coworker who has become a friend).
