About the Role
We are seeking a high-energy Enrichment Teacher to provide New York City’s 2 to 6-year-olds with a foundation for lifelong learning through our incredible enrichment classes. In this "jack of all trades" role, you are part athlete, part scientist, and part performer- transitioning seamlessly from spotting a budding gymnast on the bars, to leading a "mad science" experiment, or coaching a parent and toddler through their very first steps. As a natural storyteller with a flair for the dramatic and a heart for early childhood development, you will turn every lesson into a core memory, ensuring our youngest learners feel confident, inspired, and excited to explore the world around them.
Responsibilities
- Lead and co-lead a dynamic range of classes for children ages 0 to 6.
- Use structured and unstructured play, art, music, gymnastics, and STEM to build a child’s confidence and coordination.
- Curate a "safe to fail" environment where a shaky first step or a messy art project is celebrated as a vital leap in their lifelong learning journey.
- Master the art of the transition and the "behind-the-scenes" flow.
- Tackle daily operations with a "ready-for-anything" attitude, including resetting a gym circuit or organizing a classroom.
- Assist teammates by jumping in to help when needed.
- Build trust with parents and caregivers through daily updates, sharing the successes and challenges of their child’s day.
- Build a bridge between school and home.
- Ensure a safe, joyful, and engaging classroom environment where every child thrives.
- Anticipate classroom needs and prepare resources well in advance of instruction.
- Execute smooth, efficient transitions between classes and activities to maximize learning time.
- Cultivate trust-based relationships with students, families, and the internal team.
- Maintain 100% compliance with all Department of Health compliance requirements.
Requirements
- A High School Diploma or equivalent is required.
- An Associate’s or Bachelor’s Degree in Early Childhood (or someone who is studying) is preferred.
- 1-2+ years of formal teaching experience in early childhood (ages 2-6).

- Experience teaching gym, music, dance, gymnastics, or yoga is a plus!
