Educational Specialist

Family Child Care Network
Day Care Council of New York

Updated: March 2026

Now in its 76th year, the Day Care Council of New York (DCCNY) is a membership, advocacy, and service organization for NYC’s early childhood education providers and families seeking quality childcare and education services. Founded in 1948 to fight for the survival of publicly funded childcare centers when federal funds were eliminated at the end of World War II, we still play several vital roles in NYC’s early childhood education system.

With a mission to seek support for and assist in developing quality early childhood education and family and group family childcare services designed to promote the proper growth and development of children and their families, DCCNY is a recognized leader in NYC’s advocacy community. We work with member agencies on labor relations, public policy, and training needs.

As a leading research and advocacy organization, we pushed for the City’s continued expansion of early childhood education, including the launch of Universal Pre-K programs, salary parity for community-based early childhood educators, and we continue to push for public support of high-quality, affordable childcare for low-income families in NYC.

Description

Working under the supervision of the Education Director, the Education Specialist will work to build and enhance quality early child care environments for children from birth to age five. More specifically, the
Education Specialist has three key goals:

Develop and maintain relationships with affiliated programs and assess their quality.
Support developmentally appropriate practice and curriculum implementation.
Facilitate coaching services, professional development, and guidance for affiliated programs.

Responsibilities

While the role will evolve, specific immediate responsibilities include:

Collaborate with the Education Director, Family Support Worker, and Monitors to meet the needs of all children and families.

Adapt and provide guidance to affiliated providers on the implementation of an evidence-based curriculum for mixed-age group settings that meets the individual needs of all children.
Review and adapt appropriate curriculum support and documents with affiliated providers that foster hands-on, developmentally appropriate, and relationship-based interactions with all children.
Assist affiliated providers in conducting observations of children and entering child assessment data in a timely manner, and supporting its use for curriculum and lesson planning.
Document all coaching sessions aligned with the DOE’s Early Childhood Framework for Quality (EFQ).
Assist in ongoing outreach, enrollment, and all other administrative tasks.
Support the Education Director in coordinating all required professional learning days.
Maintain relationships with community partners who provide mental health, special needs, and other support services for all affiliated providers and families.
Create and regularly update Community Partner Resource Guide within FCC Network.
Participate in twice-monthly Network staff meetings to discuss individual providers and families and coordinate all services.
Participate in Network staff professional learning sessions delivered.
Other tasks as assigned by the Education Director.
