At SproutFive (formerly South Side Early Learning), we believe every child deserves a holistic, high-quality early education. Our goal is to ensure that all children are given the opportunity to thrive during their first five years of life. With a century of history and a startup mindset, SproutFive is looking to position itself as a national leader and reimagine the field of early learning.
Possibly the most important position in the organization, your role in this early childhood nonprofit will put you at the forefront of a movement to ensure every young child has access to holistic learning experiences they need to develop socially, emotionally, cognitively, and physically during those critical first five years of life. Your work will go beyond supporting “just child care,” as you will be helping to support the people who support the children. The families. The teachers. The communities. Because, like they say, “it takes a village.” And we’re here to empower that village. To ensure the very best starts for our children.
As an Infant/Toddler Teacher, you will work to maximize a child's first 2,000 days using developmentally appropriate and child-centered teaching practices in a preschool (ages 3 to 5 years) classroom. Along with your teaching team, you will align curricular outcomes with individual child needs to support each child's cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development.
You will help manage the day-to-day operational activities of your classroom and ensure a safe and stimulating learning environment where children are actively engaged and encouraged to succeed. As a teacher, you should be skilled in communicating with both children and adults to meet the needs of the young learners and work collaboratively with our social work team in the Family Resource Center to support parental concerns and family goals.
