Entry Level Toddler Preschool Teacher

Boys and Girls Club of Truckee Meadows needs community-driven child care providers for children aged 6 weeks to 5 years in our Early Learning Centers!

At our Reno/Sparks Early Learning Centers, you’ll have the opportunity to create a positive work experience, inspired by GREAT values: Generosity, Respect, Encouragement, Accountability, and Trustworthiness. The Early Learning Centers are committed to practicing those values to create places where every child feels safe and connected--a place to belong and a place to become--and a community organization where you can be sure you’re making a difference.

You will have the opportunity to focus on children and staff by:

• providing a safe, nurturing environment using Conscious Discipline while leading your own class of students,
• and creating curriculum programs and lesson plans consistent with QRIS standards.

You’ll get support from a full and engaged admin team, including directors that don’t hesitate to roll up their sleeves and change a diaper or to address incidents and behavior with parents.

Applicants with experience caring for children in a work-setting will be given preference, but this position does not require any experience.
