Come work in a group of Reno/Sparks child care centers that support not only the children in our care but our staff, whether they are seeking a career with us or elsewhere.
As a Toddler/Preschool Coach, you’ll be part of a team supporting new teachers with lesson planning, classroom management, and quality of instruction for children aged 6 weeks to five years. You will have the opportunity to focus on the positive and on education by:
- providing ideas for, and feedback and coaching on, engaging lessons and centers for classroom teachers,
- guiding implementation of Conscious Discipline philosophy,
- supporting quality by tracking and assessing QRIS, including ITERS and ETERS,
- and reviewing teacher lessons and curriculum implementation weekly.
You’ll get support from a full and engaged admin team, including directors that don’t hesitate to roll up their sleeves and change a diaper or to address incidents and behavior with parents.
We will need some qualifications from you, including:
- A high school diploma or GED,
- one year of experience working in a professional Early Childhood setting, ideally with at-risk children or children of trauma,
- and either a Toddler or Pre-K Child Development Associate (CDA), or ability and willingness to obtain one within six months of hire.
In exchange, our centers offer extensive benefits:
- We offer all full time employees 100% employer-paid medical, vision, and dental plans. All full time employees also receive complimentary Short Term Disability, Long Term Disability, and Life Insurance coverage.
- When we say we nurture great connections and build great futures, we don’t just mean for the students; as a member of our ELC team, you’ll strengthen your future as well through annual tuition reimbursement, the TEACH program, assistance with getting a CDA, and a 7% pension plan.
- Salary starts at $36,500/year.
These are some of the additional things you will do as a lesson coordinator with our early learning centers:
- Perform demonstrations of quality instruction.
- Conduct observations of classroom teachers.
- Update staff professional development files.
- Track developmental screenings and provide support with completion.
- Maintain the safety of our children and staff, and ensure an optimal experience for all.
This is what your day could look like as a lesson coordinator with our early learning centers:
- This role is a full time role, and while it is salaried, it requires you to be on-site from 7am to 4pm and in the classroom working with or observing staff the majority of your time.
- You will potentially be supporting five locations throughout Reno/Sparks but will be housed out of our location at 1200 El Rancho Drive.
- Our students range from 6 weeks to 5 years and are generally grouped into six age-based classes; lesson coordinators are expected, however, to be able to guide quality instruction for all age groups.
