Job Summary

Educators at Pacific Oaks Children’s School (POCS) operate at four levels (I–III) and are responsible for delivering high-quality, developmentally appropriate early childhood learning grounded in anti-bias education and emergent curriculum. The role involves implementing the school’s philosophy, creating safe inclusive indoor/outdoor environments, engaging with families, observing and documenting child development, supporting social-emotional growth, collaboration with colleagues, and participating in staff training and school events. Senior levels (II, II+, III) expand curriculum planning, yard operations, mentoring, program leadership, and family partnerships, with ultimate responsibility for program quality and staff development at Educator III. The position requires strong communication, cultural humility, and a commitment to equitable, relationship-based learning. All incumbents must meet licensing and health requirements (TB clearance, required immunizations, fingerprint/background clearances). The campus location is specified, with occasional night or weekend hours, and compensation is hourly for events with a tiered structure based on education level and leadership responsibilities.

  • Minimum Qualifications: Educator I requires 12 semester units in Early Childhood Education (ECE) or related coursework (AA preferred) and 6 months experience with children in a group setting.
  • Educator II/II+ requires BA in ECE/Child Development or related field; 2 years teaching experience in early childhood settings; progressive/play-based approaches; mentoring experience.
