Pre-K Childcare Assistant – Before & After School
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones.
We need to include location, pay, schedule, responsibilities, requirements, benefits, maybe "About Healthy Kids Programs" as about the role? Actually "About Healthy Kids Programs" is description of company. Could be "About the role" but we have "Do you love working with kids? Healthy Kids Programs is hiring..." That's more like an intro. Could be a
intro.
We need sections: maybe "About the role" (intro), "Responsibilities", "Requirements", "Benefits", "Pay", "Schedule", "Location". But we need to avoid thin sections. Could combine location, pay, schedule into one "Details" section? But instructions say use headings like Pay, Schedule. However they say include a section ONLY when posting has real specific content for it. It does have Pay and Schedule specifics. So we should include Pay and Schedule sections. Location also specific. Could combine location with pay/schedule? Might be okay to have separate sections but they'd be thin (just one line each). The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So maybe combine location, pay, schedule into a "Job Details" section. But they gave examples of headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. They didn't forbid combining but they gave examples. However they said "Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." That suggests those are typical headings we can use. But we can also create other headings? Probably better to follow examples. But we need to avoid thin sections. Could we make a "Job Details" heading and include location, pay, schedule inside as
or
? That would be a substantive section. However they didn't list "Job Details" as example but they said e.g. (examples). It's not prohibited. But safer to follow examples: include Pay, Schedule, Benefits, Responsibilities, Requirements, About the role (or maybe "About Healthy Kids Programs").
We need to avoid duplication. Let's extract substantive content:
- Location: Arthur S. May School in Poughkeepsie, NY
- Pay: $16.00 per hour
- Schedule: Follows the school calendar; Morning Program: 6:30 AM - 8:45 AM; Afternoon Program: 2:00 PM-6:30 PM; Opportunities may be available for morning, afternoon, or both programs.
- Job Status: Part-time, non-exempt (maybe minor metadata, could be folded into a short p)
- Intro: "Do you love working with kids? Healthy Kids Programs is hiring a School-Age Childcare Assistant for our Before and After School Program at Arthur S. May School for the 2026–2027 school year."
- Key Success Characteristics: list of bullet points (loves working with children..., brings energy..., enjoys encouraging..., works well..., reliable...)
- Featured Benefit: Employer-Paid Childcare description.
- Who Thrives In This Role: list of groups (parents seeking schedule..., education majors..., retirees...)
- Position Responsibilities: list of duties (facilitate hands-on activities..., provide safe environment..., observe state guidelines..., support program operations...)
- Requirements: Minimum qualifications: HS diploma or equivalent OR 1 year experience; required health clearance including TB screening; must demonstrate positive attitude, strong interpersonal skills, professionalism, reliability; physically able to bend, stretch, lift, carry up to 50 lbs.
- Part-time Benefits: list: Employer-paid childcare..., Telehealth, vision, dental coverage; AFLAC supplemental plans; 401(k) for eligible employees; Paid sick time; On-demand pay; Career development and growth opportunities.
- About Healthy Kids Programs: description.
- EEO statement: remove (boilerplate).
We need to remove duplicated lines: maybe "Employer-Paid Childcare" appears both as featured benefit and in benefits list; we should keep only once? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove duplicated lines. So we need to deduplicate. The featured benefit description is essentially same as first bullet in benefits list. We can keep one description maybe under Benefits section.
We need to avoid filler like "Part-time, non-exempt" maybe minor metadata; we can fold into a short p under Job Details.
We need to output only HTML fragment.
Let's structure:
About the role

- Required health clearance, including TB screening, in accordance with state regulations.
- Must demonstrate a positive attitude, strong interpersonal skills, professionalism, and reliability.
- Physically able to bend, stretch, lift, and carry up to 50 pounds while actively engaging with children throughout the day.

- Telehealth, vision, and dental coverage.
- AFLAC supplemental plans.
- 401(k) for eligible employees.
- Paid sick time.
- On-demand pay – access earned wages before your scheduled payday for added financial flexibility.

Pay
$16.00 per hour
Schedule
Follows the school calendar. Morning Program: 6:30 AM – 8:45 AM. Afternoon Program: 2:00 PM – 6:30 PM. Opportunities may be available for morning, afternoon, or both programs.
Location
Arthur S. May School in Poughkeepsie, NY
We could also include Job Status as part of location or schedule? Maybe add a short p under Location: "Part-time, non-exempt". But that's minor metadata; we could fold into location paragraph.
Let's combine location and job status: Arthur S. May School in Poughkeepsie, NY. Part-time, non‑exempt.
Now check for any missing substantive info: Key Success Characteristics and Who Thrives In This Role sections are not captured. Those are substantive. Should we include them? They are like "Key Success Characteristics" and "Who Thrives In This Role". They could be under "About the role" or separate sections like "Qualifications" or "Skills". The instructions gave examples: Qualifications, Skills. We could treat Key Success Characteristics as Skills or Qualifications. Who Thrives In This Role could be "About the role" or "Qualifications". We need to preserve all substantive info. So we must include those.
We could add a section "Key Success Characteristics" as a under maybe "Skills". Or we could create a section "Key Success Characteristics". The instruction says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but we should prefer those examples. However we need to include the content. We could put Key Success Characteristics under "Skills". And Who Thrives In This Role under "About the role" or "Qualifications". Let's decide:
- About the role: we already have intro paragraph. Could expand to include Who Thrives In This Role as a list.
- Skills: we can list Key Success Characteristics.
Thus:
About the role
Do you love working with kids? Healthy Kids Programs is hiring a School-Age Childcare Assistant for our Before and After School Program at Arthur S. May School for the 2026–2027 school year.
This role is especially well‑suited for:
- Parents seeking a schedule that aligns with the school day
- Education majors or future teachers looking for hands‑on experience with children and classroom management
- Retirees who enjoy staying active, mentoring children, and giving back to the community
Skills
- Loves working with children and helping them learn through play and positive experiences
- Brings energy, kindness, and patience to each day
- Enjoys encouraging children's curiosity, creativity, and confidence
- Works well with teammates and communicates effectively with families
- Reliable, organized, and committed to providing exceptional care
Now we have covered all.
Check for duplication: Employer-paid childcare appears in Benefits list only; we removed featured benefit duplicate.
Check for any other duplicated lines: maybe "Employer-paid childcare for school-age children (ages 5–12) enrolled in our program on the days and during the hours you are working with us." appears only once.
Check for any boilerplate removed: EEO statement removed, Healthy Kids Programs description we kept? The "About Healthy Kids Programs" paragraph is substantive; we should keep it. Could be under "About the company" but not required. We could add a section "About Healthy Kids Programs". But we already have About the role and Skills. We could add another section "About the organization". However we prefer few substantive sections. The description is a few sentences; we could add a paragraph under About the role or maybe a separate section "About Healthy Kids Programs". Since we already have About the role, we could add a second paragraph there describing the organization. That would keep sections few.
Let's add after intro paragraph a paragraph about Healthy Kids Programs.
Thus About the role section will have:
