Little Kitchen Academy is the first-of-its-kind Montessori-inspired cooking academy for children ages three through eighteen. We are focused on providing a safe, inspiring, and empowering space for children to identify, develop and refine their senses. With joy, mindfulness and learning as a base, we are creating a foundation for a healthy lifestyle through responsible eating choices from scratch to consumption. Through Montessori-inspired practices, LKA values the development of the whole child - physical, social, emotional and cognitive.

What will you be doing?

• Guiding children through their classes as a Lead, Support or Environment Instructor.
• Welcoming, preparing and teaching up to ten children per class by going through that day’s recipe, leading the work and using time management skills to adjust class pace as a team.
• Demonstrating practical life skills and proper tool usage while fostering conversations with students around topics such as ingredients, equipment, choices, sustainability, math, confidence, etc.
• Helping students to discover more about themselves and encouraging practice of skills, allowing for as much time as needed, and supporting children as they strengthen their skills.
• Maintaining a clean and safe environment.

What can we offer you?

• A supportive team environment with the freedom to let your personality shine.
• Recognition for your hard work and opportunities for development from your directors, who provide open, honest communication in a positive and nurturing environment.
• Paid training, immediately starting at up to $20 per hour, and Food Safety and First Aid/CPR/AED certification.

What will be expected of you?

• You have to be kind, caring and patient - every child learns at their own pace, in their own way. Your willingness to allow children to work freely and independently while providing a safe environment and guidance when necessary are the key to success for both you and your students.
• The ability to do quality work and represent Little Kitchen Academy’s Core Values (Joy. Mindfulness. Empowerment. Health. Learning. Delight.) to create more educated, able and healthy children.
• Going above and beyond with every detail, meeting and exceeding expectations to support our mission to change lives from scratch by upholding the principles of Care of Self, Care of Others and Care of Environment.
• Weekday, evening and/or weekend availability

At Little Kitchen Academy, our core values are at the heart of everything we do and are behind every decision we make, in and out of the LKA environment. We strive to be a totally inclusive workplace, and we’re dedicated to building a team who is diverse in background, identity, perspective, culture and experience. As a proud equal opportunity employer, we value the qualities and characteristics that make you who you are. If you think you can see yourself Changing Lives from Scratch, we encourage you to apply!
