A place where childhood is rich, authentic — and a little bit wild.
At Bloom Children’s Center, we believe in the kind of childhood that’s full of wonder, laughter, open-ended play, and a good dose of mud and paint! We honor the natural rhythms of childhood by creating an environment — where creativity, imagination, and independence are nurtured every day.
We are currently seeking caring, curious, and adventurous educators to join our team. Ideal candidates are passionate about play-based, relationship-centered learning and see children as capable explorers — scientists, artists, and storytellers in their own right.
About Us
Bloom Children’s Center offers infant through preschool programs that emphasize:
- Play as the foundation of learning and development
- Deep respect for each child’s individuality and pace
- Time outdoors in all seasons — climbing, digging, splashing, discovering
- Rich sensory and nature-based experiences
- Consistent, nurturing relationships between caregivers, children, and families
- A community culture grounded in love, authenticity, and connection
About You: The Attuned Facilitator
You are a steward of wonder who is equally comfortable getting your hands dirty and facilitating a complex social moment. You understand that "environment" means more than just materials—it is the energy, the emotional safety, and the "big picture" flow of the group. You don't just "watch" children; you observe, reflect, and proactively adjust the space to minimize chaos and maximize growth. You bring a humble, "ego-free" approach to your work, viewing conflict as a tool for learning and mud as a hallmark of a life well-lived. If you can balance the professional responsibility of an educator with the playful, adventurous spirit of a child, you will thrive here.
Position Details
- A place that supports long-term, stable professional growth--where educators are valued, mentored, and encouraged to keep depending their craft
- Opportunities for ongoing reflection, collaboration, and professional development
- A warm, supportive team culture that values balance wellbeing, and authentic connection
If you believe in the power of play — and understand that real learning often looks a little messy — we’d love to meet you!

“In play, a child is always above his average age, above his daily behavior; in play, it is as though he were a head taller than himself.”
