At West Nashville Preschool, we strive to hire passionate, dedicated, and caring teachers who are committed to making a difference in children’s lives.

​

Our early childhood educators are chosen for their education, training, experience, dedication, character, and ability to connect and communicate effectively with children and adults.

​

We respect the field of early childhood education and view our educators as professionals tasked with the fundamental job of providing a strong foundation, on which all future learning depends.

​

Although we’re all on our own step into learning and growing, our educators are brought into our mission and believe in the importance of early childhood education.

Open Positions

Now Hiring: Full-Time Toddler Educator

We're seeking two (2) passionate Toddler Educators to join our team as a co-lead educators with children ages 14-20 months old, and 2-2.5 years old. These roles are essential in creating a nurturing, educational atmosphere for our young learners — fostering spiritual growth while ensuring each child's safety and well-being.
 

This is a physically active role: staff must be able to climb stairs, play on the floor, lift young children, move quickly, and prioritize tasks and needs while communicating clearly. Just as important is a willingness to work closely and respectfully with others while adhering to DHS child care guidelines.
 

Please apply only if you have prior childcare experience and are comfortable working in a Christian, faith-based environment.
