Early Childhood Special Education (ECSE) Teacher

The ECSE Teacher will provide specialized instruction and support to birth through age 5 children with disabilities, with assignments in Birth–3 (IFSP-based) or Ages 3–5 (IEP-based), or a split across both. Responsibilities include developing and implementing IFSPs/IEPs in collaboration with families and interdisciplinary teams, delivering instruction across home, community, center-based, or co-teaching settings, targeting developmental domains (communication, cognition, social-emotional, adaptive, motor), applying UDL and play-based methods, collecting progress data, conducting assessments, participating in eligibility determinations and IEP/IFSP meetings, implementing PBSPs/BIPs, and facilitating transitions from Birth–3 to Part B and preschool to kindergarten. The role requires partnering with families, interpreters, paraprofessionals, related service providers, ECFE staff, and community partners; maintaining confidential records; and engaging in ongoing professional development focused on equity, cultural responsiveness, and trauma-informed care. Education and licensure must align with MN ECSE requirements; Master’s preferred but not required.
