Build a Career That Actually Feels Meaningful
If you’re looking for more than “just a job” in childcare, this is it.
At Sakonnet Early Learning Center, we’ve been a trusted part of the Tiverton community for over 40 years, providing high-quality early education in a warm, structured, and supportive environment. We’re currently seeking a Pre-K Preschool Teacher who is ready to lead, grow, and make a real impact every single day.
Unlike typical school paraprofessional roles, this position offers year-round employment, consistent scheduling, and clear pathways for advancement in early childhood education.

- School paraprofessional or classroom aide roles
- Youth programs, camps, or recreation leadership
- Behavioral health, ABA, or human services support
- Coaching, tutoring, mentoring, or academic support
- Strong customer service or leadership roles involving children
If you bring patience, energy, and a genuine interest in child development, we can train the rest.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Leading engaging Pre-K instruction through play-based and structured learning
- Supporting early literacy, math readiness, and STEAM activities
- Implementing Creative Curriculum in developmentally appropriate ways
- Encouraging positive behavior and emotional development
- Creating a safe, consistent, and welcoming classroom environment
- Partnering with families and collaborating with a dedicated teaching team
What You’ll Get
We believe great educators deserve real support and stability:
- Competitive hourly pay: $16.00 – $19.00/hr
- $500 sign-on bonus (full-time) / $250 (part-time)
- Weekly pay cycle
- Paid time off and holidays (eligible staff)
- Employee childcare discounts
- 401(k) eligibility
- Free snacks and classroom perks
- Ongoing training + professional development
- Clear promotion and advancement opportunities
- Year-round, stable scheduling
Requirements
- High school diploma or GED required
- Experience working with children preferred
- CDA or early childhood coursework is a plus
- CPR/First Aid certification (or willingness to obtain)
- Must successfully pass background screening
