    Love Working With Infants? Build Their First School Experience With Us.

    Sacramento Montessori School is looking for a warm, nurturing, dependable Infant Teacher who understands that caring for babies is about much more than keeping them safe.

    It's about building trust.

    It's about responding when a baby needs comfort.

    It's about talking, singing, reading, and connecting throughout the day.

    And it's about creating a calm environment where babies can develop at their own pace.

    If you are passionate about infants and want to be part of a supportive Montessori school, we would love to meet you.

    Why Join Sacramento Montessori School?

    We want our teachers to feel supported and valued.

    As part of our team, you will receive:

    $22–$26 per hour

    50% employee childcare discount

    Montessori guidance and training

    Opportunities for professional development

    A warm Montessori classroom environment

    Support from experienced teachers and administrators

    Opportunities to grow within the school

    The opportunity to build meaningful relationships with infants and their families

    A team committed to providing high-quality early childhood care and education

    What You'll Do

    As an Infant Teacher, you will help provide a safe, nurturing, and developmentally appropriate environment for babies during one of the most important stages of their development.

    Your responsibilities will include:

    Providing loving, attentive care throughout the day

    Responding appropriately to each infant's individual needs and cues

    Supporting feeding, diapering, sleeping, and daily routines

    Holding, comforting, talking, singing, and engaging with infants

    Supporting infants as they develop movement, coordination, communication, and independence

    Providing age-appropriate Montessori experiences and activities

    Encouraging tummy time, movement, exploration, and sensory experiences

    Maintaining a clean, organized, and peaceful classroom

    Following safe sleep, health, and sanitation practices

    Maintaining appropriate supervision and teacher-to-child ratios

    Communicating respectfully and professionally with parents and families

    Recording daily information and communicating important updates about each child

    Working collaboratively with your teaching team

    Participating in staff meetings and professional development

    We Are Looking For Someone Who Is:

    Warm, patient, gentle, and nurturing

    Reliable and dependable

    Comfortable caring for young infants

    Attentive to children's individual cues and needs

    Calm under pressure

    A strong communicator

    Comfortable working as part of a team

    Passionate about early childhood development

    Respectful toward children, families, and coworkers

    Interested in learning about Montessori education

    Montessori Experience Is a Plus — But Not Required

    You don't need to be a Montessori expert to join our team.

    If you are an experienced infant teacher or early childhood professional who wants to learn Montessori, we are willing to provide training and support for the right candidate.

    Experience with infants in a preschool, childcare center, nanny setting, family childcare home, Early Head Start, or similar environment is welcome.

    We Believe Infant Care Is Education

    Our youngest children deserve intentional, respectful care.

    Every diaper change is an opportunity for connection.

    Every feeding is an opportunity for communication.

    Every movement is an opportunity for development.

    Every interaction helps build the foundation for future learning.

    Our goal is to create an infant environment where children feel safe, loved, respected, and capable.

    If you believe in that kind of care, we want you on our team.
