Lead Infant Teacher — Reggio's Treehouse
Reggio's Treehouse is looking for a passionate, creative educator who believes children are capable, curious learners — and who's excited to help them prove it every day.
Rooted in the Reggio Emilia philosophy , we foster self-directed learning and critical thinking through play. Our educators don't just teach — they facilitate wonder, document discovery, and help shape the thinkers of tomorrow.
About the Role
As a Lead Facilitator, you'll be a collaborative, reflective practitioner who works closely with our Director and Assistant Director to create a rich, standards-aligned learning environment. You'll design and implement meaningful provocations, observe and document student experiences, and partner with families to support each child's unique growth.
What You'll Do
- Plan and deliver lessons tailored to individual student needs and developmental stages
- Design and implement engaging, inquiry-based provocations rooted in Project Based Learning
- Observe, assess, and document student progress using digital tools, submitting records to the Assistant Director in a timely manner
- Collaborate with fellow educators to promote interdisciplinary, cross-curricular learning
- Build strong, communicative relationships with families — including regular updates and parent meetings
- Uphold child safety and welfare as a top priority at all times
- Maintain compliance with Reggio's Treehouse standards and State Licensing requirements
- Participate in school events, field trips, and ongoing professional development
What You Bring
Required:
- CDA or Associate Degree in Early Childhood Education or a related field
- Minimum 1 year of experience in a licensed childcare facility, kindergarten, or early childhood program
- Strong organizational skills, professionalism, and dependability
- Comfort with technology for documentation and communication
Preferred:
- Experience in a Reggio Emilia-inspired environment
- Familiarity with Project Based Learning
- Teacher certification or licensure
What We Offer
We invest in our educators just as we invest in our students.
