Your Role
We're looking for an enthusiastic, dedicated Lead Guide (Teacher) to support a mixed-age class of toddler age children in a Montessori environment. 
In a Montessori community, guides (teachers) carefully prepare an environment that fosters independence and captivates a child's interest. Guides provide personalized support to each child. They work with children individually and in small groups, demonstrating how to use the materials and perform activities with them, and giving precise language to understand their experiences. 
Because of the carefully prepared environment and individualized support, children in a Montessori class have tremendous liberty to explore the environment and work on materials of their choice for as long as they want. Most importantly, the support and materials help every child develop skills, confidence, and a firm conviction that they are capable. 
We're looking for a Lead Guide who will bring their best in order to support every child in reaching their highest potential!

A Guidepost Montessori toddler space features:
<ul>
<li>Abundant open space to move and explore </li>
<li>Child-sized furniture and objects to facilitate independence </li>
<li>Curriculum for independence in: dressing themselves, feeding themselves, toilet learning etc.</li>
<li>Scientifically designed learning materials to develop fine and gross motor skills and so much more </li>
<li>Cozy rugs, real plants, and plenty of natural light</li>
<li>Breakable objects made from natural materials like wood, metal, and glass rather than plastic</li>
<li>Objects to climb, crawl over, and explore instead of baby-holding devices like walkers and highchairs </li>
</ul>
If you're passionate about giving children the tools they need to succeed, eager to partner with parents on their child's journey, and longing to join a collaborative community of peers, then the team at Guidepost Montessori would love to hear from you! 
An ideal candidate has:
<ul>
<li>Are interested in pursuing certified Montessori training through our Prepared Montessorian Institute (fully-sponsored) or have previously obtained a Montessori diploma</li>
<li>Experience working with children ages 0-3 in a group setting such as daycare, aftercare, or nursery</li>
