Full Job Description

About The Role

Bright Start is seeking a strong, people-centered Center Director to lead one of our early childhood campuses in Washington, DC.

The Center Director serves as the on-site instructional, cultural, and family-trust leader of the campus. This role is responsible for developing teachers, strengthening staff culture, supporting high-quality classroom practice, managing sensitive family relationships, and ensuring the campus operates in alignment with Bright Start’s mission, licensing expectations, and program standards.

This role is designed with meaningful operational support. The Center Director works closely with a Campus Executive Assistant, Regional Director of Operations, and central support teams so the Director can focus on people leadership, program quality, family relationships, and campus culture.

What You’ll Lead

People Leadership & Staff Culture: Coach, support, and develop teaching staff; set clear expectations; address performance concerns; and build a professional, respectful, accountable campus culture.
Program Quality & Instructional Leadership: Ensure classrooms reflect Bright Start standards for safety, supervision, curriculum implementation, child development, teacher-child interactions, and high-quality early childhood environments.
Family Relationships & Escalations: Serve as the campus leader for sensitive parent communication, family trust, retention, and escalated concerns involving safety, child development, classroom quality, or staff communication.
Health, Safety & Compliance Implementation: Reinforce licensing, health, safety, supervision, and incident-reporting expectations; review serious concerns; and partner with compliance and operations leaders to maintain strong campus systems.
Campus Leadership & Execution: Lead campus-level implementation of Bright Start priorities, supervise the Campus Executive Assistant, communicate risks proactively, and ensure campus systems support a safe and high-quality program.

What Makes This Role Different

This is not a desk-bound administrative role. The Center Director is expected to be visible in classrooms, connected to teachers, responsive to families, and focused on program quality.

The role is supported by administrative and operational partners so the Director is expected to be abreast on enrollment, billing, compliance-tracking, family-service, and operational tasks, however will not have to directly own these matters.

Required Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education, Child Development, Education, or related field, or equivalent qualifications required by licensing
Minimum of 5 years of experience in early childhood education or childcare leadership
Minimum of 2 years of supervisory or classroom management experience
Knowledge of childcare licensing requirements and early childhood program standards
Demonstrated ability to lead, coach, and develop teaching staff
Strong written and verbal communication skills
Ability to work fully on-site and maintain consistent campus presence

Preferred Qualifications

Master’s degree in Early Childhood Education, Education Leadership, Child Development, or related field
Experience with CLASS, ITERS-3, NAC, QRIS, and/or OSSE licensing
Experience leading a childcare center, preschool, or early learning campus
Experience supporting diverse learners and partnering with families around developmental or behavioral needs
Experience using KangarooTime, IntelliKids, Ninety, Google Workspace, or similar systems

A Strong Candidate is:

relationship-driven and child-centered
confident coaching and developing teachers
calm and professional during sensitive situations
able to balance warmth with accountability
skilled at communicating with staff and families
committed to high-quality early childhood education

Compensation & Benefits

Salary range: $70,000–$90,000 annually
Performance bonus eligibility
Health insurance benefits
Paid time off
Paid holidays
Professional development support
Additional benefits to be shared during the hiring process

Employment Requirements

This is a full-time, on-site leadership role. The position requires regular movement throughout classrooms, playgrounds, offices, and shared spaces; frequent interaction with children, families, and staff; and occasional evening events, parent meetings, or staff meetings.

Employment is subject to required childcare licensing clearances, background checks, and eligibility requirements under applicable law.
