Two's Teacher

WHO WE ARE

Primrose School of Lantana is an accredited private preschool that provides a premier educational child care experience. We offer year-round programs for children from infant through elementary-aged school age. We believe who children become is as important as what they know. Our franchise owners (Frank & Erin) are onsite daily and passionately believe in what they do. This is their only school, and they are committed to excellence (and fun!)

WHO YOU'LL WORK WITH

Our classrooms have 2 or 3 co-teachers depending on classroom size, and we all take responsibility for ensuring a healthy learning environment for children- we do not have lead teachers and assistants. Our teachers are dedicated and work hard and prefer a fun and drama-free workplace.

Our leadership team-Anita, Rachael, Katie & Christina- are here to support you and the daily operations of our school. They each have their niche, but together they make a supportive and dedicated team. Katie, our education coach, is dedicated to bringing out the best in teachers and helping them bring the curriculum to life.

YOU'LL BE A GOOD FIT IF...

If you aren't afraid of hard work (kids have lots of energy!), but also want to make a real difference, this may be the place for you. We really appreciate people who are flexible and team-oriented (sometimes we have to help each other out, because life happens). It's important that you're a good communicator with the leadership team, your teammates, and parents. A teacher with at least a year of experience in early childhood is our preference, but if you have the right heart and a coachable personality, we can work with that! Knowing the social, emotional and creative needs of young children is a must (but we also train in this area) and you need to be able to lift up to 35 lbs. in connection with the handling of children for the facilitation of programs, child safety, and potential emergency situations. For Infant and Young Toddler teachers, must be able to properly lift infants into and out of a crib.
