At Little Wings, children are viewed as capable, curious, and active participants in their learning. Our program is grounded in strong relationships, intentional environments, inquiry, collaboration, and respect for children’s ideas.

• Step into classrooms as needed to provide coverage and hands-on support
• Assist with staffing, scheduling, enrollment, and licensing compliance
• Build strong, trusting relationships with children, families, and educators
• Support weekly educator planning time, collaboration, reflection, and professional development
• Help ensure classroom environments and teaching practices reflect the school’s Reggio-inspired philosophy
• Contribute to the development of systems, procedures, and a positive school culture
What We’re Looking For
• At least five years of experience working with young children
• At least two years of leadership or supervisory experience in early childhood education
• Experience with the Reggio Emilia approach strongly preferred, but not required
• Strong knowledge of child development and high-quality early childhood practices

• A calm, flexible, collaborative, and hands-on leadership style
• Ability to balance administrative responsibilities with meaningful support for educators and classrooms

• Ongoing professional development
• A collaborative and reflective leadership environment
• The opportunity to help build and shape a new school from the beginning
