The Opportunity
Are you a passionate early childhood professional who believes in the power of play, inquiry, and community? We are looking for an Early Learning Specialist who brings energy, expertise, and heart to every interaction — with children, families, and colleagues alike. In this role, you will design and deliver exceptional programs across multiple settings — indoors, outdoors in all four seasons, and virtually — guided by the principles of How Does Learning Happen? (HDLH). You will be a trusted presence for families navigating early childhood, connecting them to resources, supporting developmental screenings, and building relationships that last. This is a role for someone who is curious, adaptable, and committed — someone who sees every program as an opportunity to make a real difference in a child's life.

- Provide referral follow-up and case management support as needed
- Collaborate actively with community partners to strengthen service delivery
- Contribute to a positive, inclusive team culture built on respect and strong relationships
- Share knowledge and learnings with colleagues in a clear, professional manner

- Mentor students and support emerging professionals as opportunities arise
- Pursue ongoing professional development — internal and external — and apply new learning to practice
