Infant Classroom Assistant

Élan Vital Montessori | Baton Rouge, LAMonday–Friday | 7:00 AM–3:00 PM$12–$15 per hour (depending on experience)

Do you have a heart for infants and believe the earliest years of life deserve extraordinary care?

At Élan Vital Montessori, our Infant Community is intentionally different from a traditional daycare. We believe infants are capable, competent individuals who deserve respect from the very beginning of life. Rather than simply caring for babies, we strive to build trusting relationships with each child while partnering closely with their families during one of the most meaningful and vulnerable seasons of parenthood.

We believe our work extends beyond meeting an infant’s daily needs—we are privileged to walk alongside families during this special season of life. Every interaction is an opportunity to support, encourage, educate, and partner with parents as they navigate the incredible journey of welcoming and raising a young child.

Our Montessori approach is rooted in following each child’s natural development. We carefully observe rather than rush, guide rather than force, and trust that children reach milestones in their own time when provided with a thoughtfully prepared environment and loving, responsive adults. We value child development over trends, opinions, or arbitrary timelines and believe every infant deserves the opportunity to develop at their own unique pace.

This position is ideal for someone who is nurturing, observant, dependable, and passionate about creating a calm, loving environment where infants—and their families—can thrive.

Responsibilities

Assist the lead teacher in providing attentive, responsive care throughout the day.
Build warm, trusting relationships with both infants and their families.
Support individualized feeding, diapering, sleeping, and daily care routines.
Observe each child’s development and provide support that follows the child’s natural readiness.
Prepare Montessori materials and help maintain a beautiful, peaceful classroom environment.
Communicate professionally and compassionately with families.
Collaborate closely with the teaching team to provide consistency and exceptional care.
Help maintain classroom cleanliness through routine sanitizing, laundry, dishes, and other daily classroom responsibilities.

Preferred Experience

We welcome applicants from a variety of backgrounds who are passionate about supporting infants and their families. While previous childcare experience is valuable, we especially encourage applicants with experience in one or more of the following:

Infant classroom or nursery experience
Birth doula or postpartum doula work
Childbirth education or newborn education
Professional nannying or household management
Newborn care specialist experience
Other roles centered around supporting families with infants and young children

We believe the strongest candidates understand that caring for an infant also means caring for the family. We are looking for someone who values compassionate communication, meaningful relationships, and a genuine desire to serve parents just as much as they serve their children.

Qualifications

Must be dependable, punctual, and committed to working as part of a collaborative team.
Must be able to pass all required state background checks.
Must complete all required online state training and continuing education.
During the first 8–10 weeks of employment, employees will complete an additional online Montessori Infant Overview course to gain a deeper understanding of Montessori philosophy and infant development.
A willingness to learn, grow, and embrace the Montessori approach is essential.

If you’re looking for more than a daycare job—if you’re looking to become part of a team that values respectful relationships, child development, family partnership, and supporting infants during the earliest years of life—we would love to hear from you.

Pay: $12.00 - $15.00 per hour
