We are looking for full-time applicants with at least six months of Preschool experience and current on Nevada Registry.

We need a full-time Teacher for an 18-24 month class (6:1 ratio) and a full-time Teacher for a 3 year-old class (12:1 ratio).

We offer discounted child care for children aged 6 weeks to 5 years and free child care for school-aged children through Boys & Girls Club of Truckee Meadows. We offer tuition reimbursement and employee wellness services. 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. This position would be eligible for a 7% pension plan. Pay ranges from $15.50 to $17 dependent on Nevada Registry placement and childcare experience. These are some of the additional things you will do as a Teacher with our early learning centers: Care for children, including diapering, toilet training, feeding, and cleaning. Supervise or instruct groups of up to 13 children, depending on age, independently. Prepare supplies and materials for lessons and exercises. Manage student portfolios.

Qualifications We have great directors and a program quality team that can teach you skills on the job, but there are some actions and goals that will make you more successful as a Teacher with the Early Learning Centers. You know that quality early childcare is necessary for a strong community and have experience in early childhood education. You want to bring positivity every day to every staff member, knowing how stressful and challenging child care is. You believe that uniqueness should be celebrated and support including all persons, regardless of background or beliefs. You respect your team and communicate when you are experiencing difficulty meeting responsibilities. Experience with MS Word, and Brightwheel are also preferred. As part of our commitment to child and member safety, there are some additional steps that all hires will be asked to complete. You will need to provide 3 references. These references should be professional references, but references from non-family members over the age of 18 who can speak to your character and professionalism can be substituted in the absence of work experience.
