ABOUT THE JCC EAST BAY

The JCC East Bay values hachnasat orchim (providing a welcoming home) for people of all ages and life stages. Inspired by Jewish values, culture, and tradition, we build relationships, foster learning, and offer accessible pathways to Jewish life through programs for children, teens, families, adults, and older adults. After decades of operating our suite of programs in North Berkeley, we will be opening a new home for East Bay Jewish life in the summer of 2026 in Oakland. Our new campus will offer programs and activities to spark creativity, nurture identity, and weave together diverse generations, cultures, and organizations—including voices from across global Jewry—into a living tapestry of culture, learning, and kehilla (community) connections. Our future flagship campus in the Rockridge neighborhood will house our administrative offices and our award-winning preschool opening in the fall of 2026, and we will retain afterschool programs in Berkeley and in several Oakland public schools.

POSITION SUMMARY

The Hebrew Musician leads monthly Parent & Toddler Music Sessions designed to engage young children and their caregivers through music, language, and Jewish culture. This role is ideal for a warm, engaging Hebrew-speaking musician who enjoys working with families and understands the role of music in early childhood development.

REQUIRED MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS

Experience as a musician; strong vocal skills required (instrumental skills a plus).
Experience working with young children and/or in early childhood or family settings.
Background in early childhood education, music education, or a related field.
Familiarity with Hebrew and Israeli children’s songs and cultural repertoire.
Comfort leading groups of parents and toddlers in an interactive environment.
Ability to create engaging, age-appropriate musical experiences.
