Toddler: We are hoping to expand our toddler program and are looking for candidates with Montessori Infant/Toddler training who would be interested in leading a classroom of 13-14 toddlers between the ages of 18 months-3 years old.
Primary: As with the toddler position, we are just doing a preliminary search for what primary guides might be available for next school year.
