• Bachelor of Education (BEd) from a recognized Alberta institution and valid Alberta Teaching Certificate (required).
• Experience working with children with diverse developmental, behavioral, and learning needs.
• Strong knowledge of early childhood development, intervention strategies, and evidence-based behavior practices.
• Exceptional interpersonal and communication skills for working effectively with children, families, and multidisciplinary teams.

• Occasional exposure to childhood illnesses and bodily fluids.
• Ability to remain calm, flexible, and solution-focused in dynamic environments.
• Some evenings and weekends may be required for meetings, events, or professional learning.
• Access to transportation.
