Fueling Brains Academies is looking for a nurturing, confident, and engaging Junior Preschool Lead Teacher to lead a consistent group of children aged 19 months to 3 years. At this age, every routine is a learning opportunity. From helping a child navigate big emotions and transitions to encouraging language, independence, turn-taking, and self-help skills, you’ll play an important role in building the foundations for lifelong learning. You’ll stay with the same group of children throughout their day as they move through our Left Brain, Right Brain, and Movement learning environments - creating the consistency, relationships, and sense of security young children need to thrive.

Support early executive function skills through routines, repetition, movement, exploration, and purposeful play. Help children build independence and self-help skills through toileting, handwashing, mealtimes, dressing, clean-up, nap routines, and classroom transitions. Use co-regulation and positive guidance to support emotional regulation, confidence, communication, and positive peer interactions. Observe and document children's development and use those observations to support individualized learning. Build positive relationships with families and keep them connected to their child's progress, routines, and milestones. Collaborate with fellow educators, curriculum leaders, and leadership to create an inclusive and supportive classroom. Maintain a safe, organized, and licensing-compliant learning environment. What You’ll Bring Alberta Early Childhood Educator Level 2 or Level 3 Certification - Level 3 preferred.

Most importantly, a genuine passion for helping young children feel safe, capable, curious, and confident. WHY FUELING BRAINS?
