Full Job Description

Assistant Director – Childcare Center

Legacy Learners Academy | Columbia, SC
Full-Time | Monday–Friday | 40 Hours per Week
Pay: $18.00–$20.00 per hour

Legacy Learners Academy is seeking a dependable, experienced, and hands-on Assistant Director to join our leadership team. This position is ideal for someone who enjoys working directly with children and staff while also taking an active role in the daily operations of a growing childcare center.

This is not a desk-only leadership position. We are looking for someone who takes initiative, communicates well, can step in where needed, and is ready to help maintain a safe, organized, nurturing, and high-quality environment.

What You'll Do

Assist with the day-to-day operations of the childcare center
Support, guide, and hold teaching staff accountable to center expectations
Assist with staff scheduling, onboarding, training, and classroom observations
Help maintain DSS licensing and center compliance requirements
Support parent communication, tours, enrollment, and daily administrative needs
Step into classrooms when additional leadership or coverage is needed
Assist with maintaining an organized, professional, and welcoming center environment
Prepare and serve daily meals and snacks during our current growth phase
Support CACFP food program requirements, including meal documentation, inventory, food safety, sanitation, and kitchen organization

As our enrollment and team continue to grow, the position is expected to transition toward increased administrative and leadership responsibilities.

What We're Looking For

Previous experience working in a licensed childcare setting
Childcare leadership, Lead Teacher, Assistant Director, or Director experience strongly preferred
Knowledge of South Carolina childcare licensing requirements preferred
Strong communication and organizational skills
Dependable, professional, and able to take initiative without constant direction
Comfortable providing staff guidance and accountability
Comfortable preparing meals for children and maintaining a clean, organized kitchen
Able to manage multiple responsibilities and adjust when center needs change
CPR/First Aid certification preferred
Must meet all DSS requirements for employment in a licensed childcare facility

Schedule & Benefits

Monday–Friday
40 guaranteed hours per week
1-hour duty-free break each day
No nights or weekends
50% employee childcare discount
Paid holidays and PTO (based on eligibility)
Leadership development and opportunities for continued growth

About Legacy Learners Academy

If you're an experienced early childhood professional who wants to be part of building and growing a strong childcare program—not simply maintaining one—we'd love to hear from you.

Apply through Indeed with your current resume and relevant childcare experience.

Pay: $18.00 - $20.00 per hour
