We are an in-home Montessori program serving children up to age 6. We are a family owned and queer owned company, and we are looking for an assistant to join us in serving families with young children. We welcome students! Guaranteed pay increase to $20/hr after the first 3 months.
We are disability friendly for both staff and students. We don't count absences and trust our employees to determine when they are (or aren't) mentally and physically able to work. Our current team members are great, and are generally unable to work more days than not, so we are looking for a staff member who can work a flexible schedule. We can offer a guaranteed 20 hours per week, and some weeks will have more hours available.
Our disability policy includes neurodivergence and undiagnosed disabilities. We do not terminate enrollment based on children's abilities or behaviors, but instead work with all the children to help them develop prosocial behaviors and learn to respect other people's needs and boundaries.
