Passionate Educator:

Invite, Empower, Educate

The first five years of a child’s life are the most important to their future. We also know they can be some of the most physically exhausting for parents, too. We believe in the power of early music and movement education to foster lifelong learning and excitement in the hearts and minds of young children. We also believe in empowering adults to thrive and not just survive these critical years. 

We are seeking an individual willing to share in this joy and passion and join our Dream Team as a Passionate Educator. Since opening in 2017, we have already made a splash in our community as a safe place to come for children and families. We dream of making even more waves as we continue to get the word out and continue to create the ultimate early childhood “Cradle to Kindergarten” experience for our community.

In this role you will:

  • Use the powerful early childhood vehicle of music, movement and language to propel children ages 0-5 and their families in our community into an incredible head start in their lives

  • Prepare class lessons and materials from the Kindermusik International curriculum

  • Educate, inspire and encourage children and their grownups each week through in-person classes

  • Communicate with families both in and out of the studio, helping them feel welcome, noticed and cherished

  • Enjoy being a part of a Dream Team with monthly meetings, engaging trainings, meaningful mentoring, and an annual team retreat

  • Contribute weekly to our Team Trello Board used for internal team communication

Attributes for Success

  • An efficient and organized work ethic. You love nothing more than to be well-prepared and organized for your classes. You understand that excellent preparation opens the door for creativity and spontaneity in the moment.

  • A bold confidence. Even when a lesson isn’t going quite as expected or planned you are able to flex and improvise quickly based on the needs of each class.

  • Enthralling energy. You are able to leave your own agenda at the door and enter every class with a fresh sense of excitement and fun. Your families feed off of your warmth and love.
