At Under the Magic Pine Tree, we believe even our youngest children deserve more than care—they deserve connection, respect, and a thoughtfully prepared environment where they can grow, explore, and feel deeply known.

We are expanding our program to welcome children as young as 9 months, and we are looking for a reliable, warm, and deeply trustworthy teacher to help build the foundation of this space.

This is not a babysitting role. This is relationship-based, intentional work with children in their earliest years.

What This Role Really Is

You will be:

Building secure, responsive relationships with infants and toddlers

Creating a calm, predictable environment through consistent routines

Supporting early development through presence, observation, and interaction

Partnering with families in a way that builds trust and confidence

Helping shape a classroom that reflects our Reggio-inspired approach

We Are Looking For Someone Who Is:

Highly reliable – children need consistency, and so do we

Able to follow routines and structure – you understand that predictability creates safety

Warm and responsive – you notice, respond, and connect

Calm, patient, and grounded—even on hard days

A team player who communicates clearly and respectfully

Experience

Infant/toddler experience is preferred

We are open to the right person who is eager to learn and grow into this role

Position Details

Full-time (schedule may vary based on availability)

Pay: $15–$18/hour, based on experience and demonstrated ability

Why Under the Magic Pine Tree?

We are not a typical childcare center. Our classrooms are intentionally designed, our work is relationship-driven, and our team is committed to doing this work with purpose and professionalism.

This is a place where:

Your role is respected as meaningful work

You are supported in your growth

Children are seen as capable, not managed

Before You Apply

This role is a strong fit for someone who:

Wants to be present and engaged, not just supervise

Values consistency and follow-through

Understands that caring for infants is skilled, important work
