Full Job Description

Job Summary:

Fernbrook Farms Environmental Education Center seeks passionate early childhood educators to join our Saplings program for ages 3-5. Since 2001, Fernbrook has worked to get kids outside and into nature by providing hands-on experiences that connect kids with their local food systems and environment. Our Saplings program, entering its seventh year, is geared towards our youngest learners and is designed to foster curiosity, wonder, and a lifelong relationship with the natural world.

Learning at Saplings is child-led, play-based, and nature-focused. Most of our days are spent outdoors, immersed in the many ecosystems of Fernbrook’s 230-acre working farm. Our team of 5 works closely together to support and guide up to 20 students each day in nature play and exploration. Saplings students are encouraged to wander, investigate, experiment, create, and discover. Saplings teachers build on student cues, deepening the learning with intentionally-crafted experiences and activities. Teachers support students as they try new things to challenge themselves mentally, physically, and socially. They actively join students in play and exploration, but also know when to step back and let students organize themselves. They encourage students to ask and seek the answers to their own questions, and they understand that mistake-making is part of the learning process. Most crucially, they set the tone for the group by modelling warmth, interest, and enthusiastic playfulness.

Our Ideal Candidate:

Has a nurturing spirit
Uses their own love of nature to inspire their students
Isn’t afraid to get dirty!
Seeks to understand the reasoning behind child behavior
Is a team player
Approaches challenges with calm and a sense of humor
Shows a dedication to self-reflection and professional growth

Primary Responsibilities:

Develop flexible plans for daily “adventures” inspired by natural events/rhythms and by the current interests and needs of the class
Facilitate whole group and small group play, balancing active teacher participation with active observation
Model engaged, enthusiastic learning through inquiry, observation, trial-and-error, and collaboration
Monitor emergent interests in the class and build on them with stories, songs, crafts, and other activities
Embrace risky and immersive nature play while maintaining safety standards
Maintain a positive and encouraging atmosphere that respects the agency and capable thinking of children
Provide “just enough” assistance with self-help tasks, conflict resolution, and other problem-solving
Model fascination with, and empathy for, the natural world.
Document student activity and growth with photos, written notes, and content for family communications
Develop strong, positive, and professional partnerships with families and fellow staff

Preferred Qualifications: This is a wishlist, not a mandate! If you meet most of these qualifications, we encourage you to apply!

Position Details:
