Job Description

We're Not Hiring ECEA's Right Now

...but we are looking for a few exceptional humans to join our teaching team as

Early Childhood Educators (ECEs)

,

Infant Toddler Educators (ITs)

, and

Special Needs Educators (SNs)

.

If you love working with children, value inclusion, and have the skills to help every child feel seen and supported, this might be the place for you. Please don't call the centre -- we're probably outside in the rain, covered in paint, or deep in conversation about dinosaurs.

Our centre is beautifully located on the south side of Bear Mountain; the facility is 20,000 sq ft, with a 10,000 sq ft play yard. We have a state-of-the-art gym, 10 stunning classrooms which are all well-appointed with age appropriate toys, art supplies, and furniture. There isn't another centre like this, working here gives you pride in your career choice, you're respected by management and parents alike. We work hard to ensure your days are enjoyable, yes... some are wild, but we have your back on those days (and every other day too.) Buying supplies for your class? Not at Children of the Island, let us know what you need and we'll supply it. We provide Pro-D days with instruction from industry leading professionals. Our goal is to provide exemplary employment for people in the field, while also providing the very highest level of early years learning to our tiny humans.
