Full Job Description

Make a Difference Every Day – At a School That Feels Like Home!

Foundations Prep School is a woman-owned, independently operated early childhood center — not a franchise or corporate daycare.

We believe in the whole-child approach to learning, where emotional, sensory, physical, and cognitive development all matter.

We also believe in growing our teachers from within. Assistant Teachers here don’t just support — they learn, lead, and are mentored into becoming Lead Teachers themselves. If you have your CDA credential and a passion for early learning, we want to invest in you!

----

About the Role: As an Assistant Teacher, you'll support our Lead Teachers in creating fun, engaging, sensory-friendly, and inclusive classroom environments. You'll be a calm presence, a caring helper, and a creative thinker ready to jump in wherever you're needed. You'll assist with lesson prep, classroom activities, ProCare documentation, and — when the Lead is out — you’ll be ready to step up and lead!

----

What You’ll Do:

Help implement Creative Curriculum, Jolly Phonics, and Learning Without Tears
Prep and lead hands-on learning centers (think Blocks, Dramatic Play, Library, and more!)
Greet students warmly and assist with transitions and daily routines
Promote safety, wellness, and learning — from diapering to developmental milestones
Communicate clearly with staff, children, and families using ProCare
Assist with crafts, activities, classroom upkeep, and keeping materials stocked
Cover classrooms as needed, adapting quickly and working with different age groups
Support a sensory-friendly, inclusive environment at all times

Job Type: Full-time

Pay: $15.92 - $16.75 per hour

Expected hours: 30 – 40 per week

Benefits:

401(k) matching
Paid time off
Professional development assistance

Experience:

Early childhood education: 2 years (Required)

License/Certification:

Child Development Associate Certification (Required)

Ability to Commute:

Bloomfield, NJ 07003 (Required)

Ability to Relocate:

Bloomfield, NJ 07003: Relocate before starting work (Required)

Work Location: In person
