Full Job Description

Position Type: Full-Time (Temporary — 1 Year)

Age Groups Served: Infants (3 months) through Preschool (age 4)

Schedule: Full-time with a 30-minute unpaid lunch break

Classrooms Supported: Up to 3 classrooms throughout the day

Benefits: Health, Dental, Vision, and 401(K)

The Floating Early Childhood Teacher is a warm, adaptable, and enthusiastic educator who thrives in a dynamic environment and genuinely loves supporting young children, classroom teachers, and families. This position provides essential coverage and support across infant, toddler, and preschool classrooms, working alongside Mentor and Lead Teachers to ensure every child receives attentive, nurturing care throughout the day. The ideal candidate brings a joyful, can-do spirit to every classroom they enter — someone who connects naturally with children of all ages and temperaments, earns the trust of families, and collaborates graciously with a variety of colleagues and personalities. This is a meaningful opportunity to make a broad, positive impact across an entire early childhood program.

Key Responsibilities

Support Mentor Teachers and Lead Teachers in implementing developmentally appropriate curriculum and activities for infants through preschoolers.
Supervise and actively engage with children during indoor and outdoor play, mealtimes, naptimes, transitions, and other daily routines.
Foster children's social and emotional development by modeling positive behavior, offering encouragement, and mediating conflicts with patience and empathy.
Assist with classroom management, including facilitating smooth transitions and addressing behavioral challenges constructively and positively.
Assist with all aspects of children's personal care, including diapering and toileting, with patience, respect, and attention to each child's dignity and comfort.
Maintain a clean, safe, and organized classroom environment by sanitizing toys and equipment, organizing materials, and adhering to all health and safety protocols.
Communicate warmly and regularly with families, sharing updates on children's activities, developmental progress, and any relevant observations or concerns.

• Float between up to three classrooms throughout the day as needed, adapting quickly to different routines, age groups, and classroom cultures. • Participate in team meetings, training sessions, and professional development opportunities to grow as an educator.

Follow all school policies and procedures, including those related to confidentiality, child protection, and emergency response.

Qualifications

Required:

High school diploma or equivalent.
Colorado Shines Credential — Level One
Previous experience working with young children across multiple age groups.
Strong foundational knowledge of early childhood health and safety practices.
Genuine love for working with young children and families, with a warm, positive, and patient demeanor.
Ability to build rapport with children, families, and colleagues of varying personalities and backgrounds.
Strong communication and interpersonal skills; ability to work collaboratively and receive direction gracefully.
Flexibility and adaptability to move between classrooms and age groups throughout the day.
Ability to lift and carry up to 40 pounds.

Preferred:

Some college coursework in Early Childhood Education or a related field.
Colorado Shines Credential — Level Two or higher
Experience with infant and toddler care (3 months and up)
Familiarity with curriculum frameworks used in early childhood settings.

Work Environment

This is an active, hands-on role in a busy early childhood setting. The Floating Teacher works in multiple classrooms each day and will regularly sit on the floor, move with children, assist with diapering and toileting, lift children and materials, and spend time outdoors in varied weather. A can-do attitude and physical stamina are essential.

Physical Requirements

Ability to lift and carry up to 40 pounds.
Ability to stoop, bend, kneel and squat
Ability to stand for long periods

All teachers at CA are expected to carry out the CA Mission, "Creating Curious, Kind, Courageous, and Adventurous Learners and Leaders," to support the vision of the ECE program, and to contribute to the life of the school outside of the classroom.
