Full Job Description

Highland Preschool in Carlsbad Village is hiring an open-minded, creative preschool teacher who shows enthusiasm, curiosity, and eagerness to grow!

We're a not daycare—we're a home away from home for kiddos, where educators are not only respected professionals but also visionaries, constructing a loving environment full of opportunities to learn through play in a Reggio-inspired school. Join a team where your opinions and ideas are VALUED, your work is SUPPORTED, and your efforts are REWARDED. Read what our team says about working at Highland:

"I could list a million reasons why I continue to work at Highland, but to be brief, Highland's team is made up of some of the most collaborative, compassionate, encouraging, loving, and supportive individuals. I am consistently presented with opportunities to learn from each other and have the space to grow into the educator I aspire to be. The energy there is unique, filled with connection, inspiration, empowerment, and love. I leave feeling filled up every single day. Ugh, I just love it so dang much." —Miss Rachel, Lead Educator

"When I first began at Highland three years ago, I didn't think I would be making much of a difference - boy, was I wrong. The owner and director found gentle ways to challenge my abilities and help me grow. Our educator team respects, supports, and shows genuine kindness to one another. We have a shared commitment to helping to raise kind humans - and it reflects in our daily interactions. Most importantly we get to splash in the mud, explore, learn, garden, paint, and PLAY." —Miss Megan, TK Educator

"Why do I keep coming back? Because I love you all so much. Highland is my second home. It's a fun environment, very loving, with the best teachers. I say that all the time when I talk about this place, that you have hired some of the best teachers." —Miss Kizzy, Long-Time Substitute turned Support Educator

"I realized when I was talking with a parent the other day that this is it, this is my dream job." —Miss Mion, Director and Pedagogista
