    Job Title: Infant Classroom Teacher (Caring & Silly Welcome!) Location: 14330 Metcalf Ave, O.P. K.S. 66223 Schedule: Full-time Monday - Friday Start Date: November

    Are you the kind of person who sings lullabies like they’re on stage and celebrates tummy time like it’s a holiday? We’re looking for a nurturing, playful, and dedicated teacher to join our Infant Classroom Team!

    At Goddard OP2, we believe that early care is magical work — full of snuggles, songs, and first milestones. If you're passionate about supporting babies’ development in a warm, responsive environment (and don't mind a little drool), we want to meet you!

    What You’ll Do:

    Provide attentive, loving care to infants age range, 6 weeks to 12 months

    Support each baby’s physical, emotional, and cognitive development

    Plan and implement age-appropriate activities (yes, peek-a-boo counts!)

    Maintain a clean, safe, and stimulating classroom environment

    Build strong, trusting relationships with babies and families

    Communicate daily with families about feedings, naps, diapering, and milestones

    Collaborate with a team of teachers who care deeply and laugh often

    Who You Are:

    You love babies and understand their needs

    You're playful, silly, and not afraid to get on the floor

    You have a warm, calming presence and a sense of humor

    You’re dependable, patient, and a strong communicator

    You value diversity, respect, and inclusive care

    Requirements:

    Experience working with infants in a group setting (daycare, preschool, etc.)

    Infant/Toddler coursework or CDA preferred

    CPR/First Aid certification (or willingness to obtain)

    Must meet all state licensing requirements for infant care

    Bonus Points If You:

    Can make a baby laugh without trying

    Know every verse to “The Wheels on the Bus”

    Are a snack-time storyteller or diaper-changing DJ

    Apply Today!

    To apply, please send your resume and a short note about what makes you a great fit for an infant classroom (silly stories welcome!). We’re excited to grow our team with someone who’s as committed to care as they are to joy.
