The successful candidate should also:

• Be knowledgeable about applicable childcare licensing requirements and state and county regulations
• Be comfortable working with every age group, including infants, toddlers, preschool/pre-K, and school-age/after-school children
• Have strong computer and technology skills
• Have excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Be organized and able to manage several responsibilities throughout the day
• Be dependable, punctual, trustworthy, and professional
• Work well independently while also functioning as a strong team member
• Be willing to assist in any area of the center when needed
• Have a genuine love for children and early childhood education

Brightwheel experience is preferred but is not required.
