Part-Time Extended Day Teacher

At Guidepost Montessori, our Extended Day team creates a calm and joyful end to each child's day. This role is perfect for someone who loves working with children ages 0–6 and wants to contribute to a meaningful after-school experience in a supportive environment. 

This is a part-time position supporting our after-school program, and typically works between 2:00pm - 6:00pm, Monday through Friday.

As a Part-Time Extended Day Guide, you’ll support our after-school program for children ages 0-6. You'll help create a peaceful, engaging environment where children can unwind, explore, and connect at the end of the day.

You'll also play a key role during pick-up, helping create a warm, welcoming experience for families and ensuring each child's day ends in a calm, connected way.

While this is a part-time role, you'll play an important part in shaping the flow of the afternoon. You'll support planned activities, help maintain a consistent routine, and contribute ideas to make the program enriching and enjoyable for children.
