About the role

This position offers more than a typical part-time job in childcare. You will step into a leadership role where your work directly shapes a positive, structured, and engaging environment for children before and after school. One of the most unique parts of this opportunity is employer-paid childcare for your own children enrolled in the program, helping you significantly reduce childcare costs while staying closely connected during the workday. You will also benefit from a flexible split schedule that can support school, family responsibilities, or additional commitments.

  • Program Management: Oversee daily operations including attendance tracking, registration updates, scheduling, and staffing support.
  • Family Communication: Maintain clear and consistent communication with parents and caregivers using the Playground App.
  • Team Collaboration: Work closely with your direct supervisor and team to share updates, solve problems proactively, and maintain a positive and supportive program culture.

Requirements

  • Educational Background: Bachelor's degree required, preferably in Early Childhood Education, Business Administration, or a related field.
  • Experience: 1–3 years of experience working with children in a school, childcare, camp, or youth program setting. 1 year of managerial or supervisory experience.
  • Skills: Familiarity with before- and after-school program environments a plus. Knowledge of state childcare licensing or school-age care regulations helpful but not required.
  • Personal Attributes: Calm, flexible, and resourceful in a fast-paced environment. Able to pass required background and fingerprint clearances.

Benefits

  • Part-Time Benefits: Employer-paid childcare for children (ages 3–12) enrolled in our program on the days and during the hours you are working with us
  • Additional Benefits: Telehealth, vision, and dental coverage, AFLAC supplemental plans, a 401(k) for eligible employees, paid sick time, on-demand pay, and opportunities for professional growth and advancement within Healthy Kids Programs.
