CURRENT OPENING

Part Time Assistant Preschool Teacher

We are hiring an Assistant Preschool Teacher for our Junior Explorers (3’s/4’s) class. Workdays will be Tuesdays and Thursdays during the preschool year. 


Description:

We are a nature-based preschool combining Kindergarten readiness with experiences in nature, physical activity, and environmental education. We are located at the South Bellevue Community Center and the adjoining 40-acre Eastgate Park. Regular preschool hours are from 9:00am-12:00pm, and our students spend a minimum of 1-2 hours outside each day hiking, playing, exploring nature, and gardening.


Hours:

The approximate hours are from 8:30 am to 12:15 pm (about 3.75 hours per day). This is a 10-month preschool program that follows the Bellevue School District calendar for holidays, breaks, and school closings. This is a great opportunity for parents with children in school, as our preschool is off during the summer and during the same holidays and breaks as the Bellevue School District.  
 

Qualifications:
 

  • Previous teaching experience with children ages 3-4
  • Passion, energy, and enthusiasm for working with young children
  • Able to assist the Lead Teacher with daily routines, curriculum activities, and positive behavior   management
  • Able and willing to work collaboratively with other classroom teachers
  • Willingness to spend time outdoors with our students in all kinds of weather. Previous experience with nature-based education is a plus!
  • Must be punctual and have reliable attendance 
  • Able to lift 30 lbs
  • Pass background check
  • First Aid/CPR qualified 


Compensation:

Assistant Teachers: Starting at $16.50-$18/hour, DOE
