If you're passionate about early development and want to lead a thoughtfully designed classroom that supports independence, movement, and discovery, we'd love to meet you.
As a Lead Infant Guide, you'll lead a mixed-age infant classroom (ages 0–3) in a Montessori environment intentionally designed to support each child's natural development.
In Montessori, the environment and the guide work together to nurture independence, curiosity, and confidence. You'll thoughtfully prepare the classroom, observe each child closely, and provide individualized care that honors their unique rhythms and needs.
Most importantly, you'll help infants develop trust in themselves and the world around them laying the foundation for lifelong learning.

Observe each child to understand and support their physical, emotional, and cognitive development
Respect and follow each child's natural rhythms for sleeping, eating, and toileting
Prepare and maintain a beautiful, orderly environment that fosters trust, movement, and exploration
Support independence by encouraging children to participate in care activities
Build warm, meaningful relationships with children and families
Partner closely with parents to support each child's growth and development
Lead and collaborate with classroom team members to create a strong, respectful community

Scientifically designed materials for fine and gross motor development
Natural elements like real plants, cozy rugs, and abundant natural light
Beautiful, breakable materials made from wood and metal rather than plastic

What We're Looking For
Interest in pursuing fully sponsored Montessori certification through our Prepared Montessorian Institute, or prior Montessori diploma
Experience working with children ages 0–3 in a group care setting
Alignment with child-led educational philosophies (Montessori, Reggio Emilia, or similar)

Bachelor's degree (Child related field)
What We Offer
Competitive salary: $40,000 - $50,000 depending on experience and education
Health, dental, and vision insurance
