Lead Infant Teacher

Lead Infant Teacher

The Big Red Barn Christian Academy is looking for a lead Infant Teacher to join our team in either our Infant (6 weeks-18 months) classroom. At The Big Red Barn, we pride ourselves on having a home-like feel, not only for our kids and their families, but also our staff members. We are a true family that supports one another, and we are looking to hire those who share our values — communicative, caring, and hardworking people with a true passion for Early Childhood Education.

Our teachers are the heart of our center and we are looking for someone who can continue that connection with families. We believe in letting children be children. We let our kids learn, explore and discover on their own accord — letting them get dirty, make mistakes, learn by doing, and build the foundations of their future success in a holistic fashion. As a Christian Academy, we are looking for a like minded, Jesus loving Christian who is passionate about spreading God's love through grace and prayer.
