Early Childhood Development Coach
for each section present. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID. Must include only sections with real content. Must not include boilerplate like EEO, etc. Must not include application instructions. Must preserve substantive info.
We need to parse the posting.
Key sections:
- About the role? Actually there is a paragraph after "The Role". Could be "About the role" heading? The posting says "The Role" then description. We can treat that as "About the role". Use About the role
then
with description. - Responsibilities: The "What You’ll Be Doing (Essential Duties)" list. Use
Responsibilities
then- each duty.
- Requirements/Qualifications: There's "Required Qualifications" and "Preferred Qualifications" and "Additional Qualifications". Could combine into "Qualifications". But we need to decide sections: maybe "Required Qualifications", "Preferred Qualifications", "Additional Qualifications". However instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine required and preferred into "Qualifications". But we need to preserve all info. Could have
Qualifications
then separate subheadings? Not allowed to use other headings besides h3? Only h3 for section headings. Could have multiple h3 sections: Required Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, Additional Qualifications. That's okay but maybe thin. However they are substantive. Could combine into one Qualifications section with paragraphs distinguishing required/preferred/additional. That might be better. - Benefits: There's a long list under "About Us" after "We offer a range of outstanding benefits". That's benefits. SoBenefits
then- each benefit.
- Pay: There's "Compensation" with salary range. So
Pay
thenwith salary range. - Schedule: Not mentioned. No schedule info. So omit. - Skills: Not explicit separate; could be part of qualifications. Not needed. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". The Pay section includes salary range; that's specific. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, etc. The posting includes some safety statements etc. Those are not boilerplate? They are part of role description maybe. The "As a front-line representative..." etc. That's part of role description; we can keep in About the role paragraph. Also there is a line about "Current and former Head Start/Early Head Start parents will receive preference for employment vacancies for which they are qualified." That's part of qualifications maybe. We need to preserve all substantive info. Let's extract. First, About the role paragraph: The text after "The Role" up to before "What You’ll Be Doing". Let's capture: "The Early Childhood and Development Coach works in tandem with the Manager, Education and Inclusion to provide early childhood technical assistance, management, oversight and support to Head Start and/or Early Head Start programs to ensure effective coordination, implementation and monitoring of education services. This includes the effective implementation of a research-based curriculum, while incorporating recognized “best practices” in the fields of Early Childhood and Special Education, as well as providing educational resources for staff and parents. You will provide training and technical assistance to the classroom staff to ensure high-quality programming. This position also monitors the child and teacher's progress and performance to ensure they are achieving program objectives. You'll consult with the Program Director and other Managers, as needed, to resolve complex issues and to ensure compliance with Head Start Program Performance Standards. As a front-line representative of Save the Children, Center Directors are required to ensure the safety and security of children and families that you encounter, adhering to the agency’s values of Accountability, Ambition, Collaborations, Creativity and Integrity." We need to keep that as a paragraph. Now Responsibilities: list items under "What You’ll Be Doing (Essential Duties)". Let's extract each bullet: - Work closely with the Manager, Education and Inclusion and Program Director to assess all education staff and identify strengths and areas of needed support, and which staff would benefit most from intensive coaching. - Ensure effective teacher practices and program performance goals align with program’s school readiness objectives, curricula, and other approaches to professional development. - Execute intensive coaching, including opportunities for education staff to be observed and then receive feedback and modeling of effective teacher practices directly related to program performance goals. - Provide opportunities for education staff not identified as needing intensive coaching to receive other forms of research-based professional development aligned with program performance goals. - Establish policies that ensure assessment results are not used to solely determine punitive actions for staff identified as needing support, without providing time and resources for staff to improve - Ensure ongoing communication with and between the Program Director, Manager, Education & Inclusion, and any other relevant staff. - Ensure adequate supplies and equipment are available in classrooms and centers and that schedules and activities are age- and developmentally appropriate. - Attend home visits, parent conferences and Individualized Education Program (IEP) or Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP) meetings when requested or as needed. - Visit all classrooms regularly (4-6 hours per month per site) to conduct observations (including CLASS); provide training and technical assistance, coaching and mentoring. - Provide training and technical assistance to build capacity by working directly with Head Start/Early Head Start staff, parents, and community partners to ensure high-quality programs. - Develop and incorporate the Program for Infant Toddler Caregivers (PITC) into the curriculum and parent/child activities; ensure that staff consistently incorporate PITC information into their classrooms and home visits; provide strategies to support young English language learners and their families. - Oversee site tracking of child screenings and assessments, child data collection and participating in local evaluation activities. - Provide ongoing training in policies, procedures and program requirements, and communication and problem-solving skills to staff. - This position must have the ability to work in a constant state of alertness and safe manner and furthermore protect the safety of children by implementing active supervision techniques to ensure no child is left alone or unsupervised at any time. - Complete other tasks as assigned or needed.

Preferred Qualifications: - Bilingual preferred (English/Spanish or English and other languages used by children and families). - If in North Carolina, holding a Birth-Kindergarten (B-K) Licensure preferred.

The incumbent should maintain a valid driver’s license and remain in compliance with any Save the Children policies pertaining to the safe operation of motor vehicles. - Current and former Head Start/Early Head Start parents will receive preference for employment vacancies for which they are qualified. We could combine these into Qualifications section with paragraphs: maybe separate subheadings not allowed; but we can separate with
and
- for each list. Could do
Qualifications
thenRequired Qualifications:
then- etc. But using strong inside p is okay. However we must not invent headings. Using
with bold is fine. Alternatively we could have three separate h3 sections: Required Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, Additional Qualifications. That would be more sections but each substantive. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." These are not thin; each has multiple items. Could be okay. But to be safe, combine into one Qualifications section with sub-sections using
headings. Now Benefits: list from "We offer a range of outstanding benefits to support this goal:" then bullet list: - Paid time off: 10 days winter break and 5 days spring break, 5 personal days, 11 holidays plus 2 floating holidays per year. - Health: Competitive health care, dental and vision coverage for you and your family. - Employer paid short term disability and long-term disability benefits. - Health Savings Accounts (HSA): Option to select HSA if enrolled into a High-Deductible Health Plan in which the company matches a portion of the contribution. - Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA): Option to enroll in health care and dependent care options. - Life: Agency paid life and accidental death and dismemberment benefits (AD&D). - Family: Parental/adoption, fertility benefits - Employee Rewards Program: Annual merit increases and/or additional incentives for eligible employees - Retirement: Retirement savings plan with employer contributions (after one year) - Wellness: Health benefits and support through Calm and company-hosted events - Employee Assistance Program: Free and confidential assessments, short-term counseling, referrals, and follow-up services - Learning & Growth: Access to internal and external learning & development opportunities and mentorships. Certification and tuition assistance. We need to preserve all. Pay: "Compensation The salary range for this position is $47,864 - $51,901. Actual base salary may vary based upon, but not limited to, experience, credentials, base salary of internal peers and other relevant qualifications specific to the role." We should output that as a paragraph. Now ensure we removed boilerplate: The "About Us" paragraph before benefits includes some generic statements: "We are looking to build an inclusive team at Save the Children." That's okay to keep as part of benefits intro? Actually it's before benefits. Could be part of About Us but we can incorporate into benefits section intro paragraph. The instruction: remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The "About We are looking to build an inclusive team..." is not boilerplate; it's okay. Also there is a line about "Save the Children is committed to conducting its programs and operations in a manner that is safe for the children it serves..." That's after benefits; that's boilerplate safety statement; should be removed. Also the lines about disability assistance etc. Should be removed. Thus after benefits we stop before those safety statements. Now produce HTML. Structure:
