Toddler Teacher – Where Passion Meets Play!

Peace, Love, and Learning isn’t just our motto—it’s the heartbeat of everything we do at The Learning Cottage. We’re not your average early childhood program. We’re a place where giggles echo, creativity blooms, and every child’s journey is nurtured with love, intention, and purpose.

We proudly serve our local families, educators, and community by developing “the whole child”—supporting emotional, physical, cognitive, and social growth through rich experiences rooted in healthy habits, sustainability, community outreach, and educational excellence.

Now, we’re on the lookout for a Toddler Teacher Extraordinaire—a big-hearted, energetic, and creative soul who sees early childhood education not just as a job, but as a calling. Someone who lights up at the idea of finger painting, story time, and helping tiny humans discover their voices (and their ABCs!).

Why This Role is So Special: You'll lead a beautifully balanced toddler classroom with a LOW 1:8 teacher-to-child ratio (2 teachers: 16 toddlers total), ensuring every little learner gets the love and attention they deserve.

Your Day-to-Day Magic Will Include:

  • Bringing joy to learning with hands-on educational play, storytelling, music, and movement
  • Supporting toddlers as they build social-emotional skills and self-confidence
  • Creating a safe, nurturing, and inspiring environment filled with love, laughter, and discovery
  • Encouraging budding independence while modeling kindness, patience, and empathy
  • Collaborating with fellow educators to deliver a curriculum that’s developmentally sound and beautifully creative
  • Maintaining a tidy, engaging classroom that feels like a second home

We’re Looking for Someone Who:

  • Has a passion for all things toddler
  • Embraces each child’s unique learning style with heart and flexibility
  • Is full of patience, creativity, and—let’s be honest—a great sense of humor!
  • Knows how to balance structure with spontaneity (because toddlers will toddler)
  • Communicates like a pro—with coworkers, parents, and little learners alike
  • Is consistent, punctual, and dependable—because our kiddos count on you!
  • Has classroom experience working with children aged 2½ to 3 (preferred, but not required for the right magical fit)

Ready to Start Your Adventure With Us? We believe in building more than just great classrooms—we’re building a family. If you're ready to grow alongside a passionate team, make a lasting impact, and have a little fun while you’re at it, we’d love to meet you!
