We're looking for someone who sees early childhood as more than a profession. Someone who genuinely enjoys slowing down, following children's curiosity, and finding beauty in the ordinary moments that make up each day.

As Wondergrove's Lead Educator, you'll help bring the vision of the program to life. Working alongside the founder during the program's launch, you'll have the opportunity to thoughtfully prepare the environment, establish the daily rhythm, and create a space where children and families feel a genuine sense of belonging.

Once the program is underway, you'll lead the day-to-day operation of the classroom with a high level of autonomy. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys taking ownership of their environment, values thoughtful preparation, and finds joy in creating calm, beautiful spaces that invite children to explore and grow.

Our educators don't rush children from one activity to the next. Instead, they observe, guide, and support learning as it naturally unfolds. They understand that baking bread, caring for the classroom, exploring the forest, resolving conflicts, and building imaginative worlds together are all valuable parts of childhood.

You'll feel at home in this role if you're naturally calm, emotionally attuned, and able to balance gentle guidance with explicit, confident boundaries. You find yourself noticing the small things,



asking thoughtful questions, and seeing each child as a capable individual with their own unique way of learning.

Most importantly, you'll believe that meaningful relationships are the foundation of everything we do. You'll partner closely with families, nurture a strong sense of community, and help create an setting where both children and parents feel seen, supported, and connected.
