Two Year Old Lead Teacher

The Trike Stop Childcare Center and Preschool in Edmonds, WA is a family owned and operated, fully licensed childcare center and preschool offering care to 172 children ages 6 weeks old - 6 years old. We have found success through offering lower than required ratios in every classroom, small group sizes and employing ECE professionals. We want our teachers to be experienced (licensed childcare facility), educated (ECE credits), be passionate about young children, have a good understanding of the WAC and be reliable & dependable. We pay a competitive hourly wage of $19 - $25 an hour based on experience and education.
