Our school is a small, play-based program with 32 children ages 2-5. We are located in central Berkeley and are fortunate to have an engaging indoor-outdoor space.

We are looking for:

* One afternoon teacher who will work between 30-35 hours a week

Responsibilities include:

- must be able to be on the child's eye level or sit on the floor.

- must be able to lift 40 pounds.

- manage the classroom environment to ensure a safe and nurturing space for young children.

- communicate kindly, effectively, and respectfully with students, parents, and colleagues.

- collaborate with other educators and specialists to support children with diverse learning needs.

Our compensation is competitive, and we offer health, dental, and vision insurance! Benefits also include paid sick/vacation time, Jewish and some secular holidays.
