Careers
Do the most important work in the building.
Sixteen years, one owner, and a Gold rating from Ohio’s Step Up To Quality — built by teachers who stayed. If you believe a four-year-old’s question deserves a real answer, and that the kids who get overlooked need the strongest start, we would like to meet you.
Why teach here
A small center that treats teaching like it matters
Most of what makes this a good place for children is exactly what makes it a good place to work.
The owner works down the hall
Deia Bailey opened this center in 2010 and still runs it from inside the building. If you need something for your classroom, you ask the person who can actually say yes — the same day.
Colleagues who stay
Low turnover is not just a selling point for parents. It means the person in the next room has done this for years, knows the children, and has answers when you need them.
Standards worth working under
A Gold rating is reviewed against the state’s standards for staff qualifications, curriculum and classroom practice. You will be supported in meeting them — and it will show in your work.
Children you actually get to know
Children stay here for years, not months. The child who learns to read in your room is the baby a colleague rocked to sleep. Few jobs let you watch your work grow up.
The roles
Who we hire
Openings vary through the year, but these are the roles our rooms run on. If one of them sounds like you, reach out — even if the timing is not obvious.
Lead Teacher
Run a classroom — infant, toddler, preschool or school age. You plan the days, know every family by name, and set the tone the room lives by.
Assistant Teacher
Work alongside a lead who has done this for years. A strong place to grow into the profession while the children teach you what the textbooks could not.
School-Age Aide
Mornings and afternoons with our before- and after-school crowd — homework help, snacks, games, and the art of settling a room full of kids who sat still all day.
Substitute / Float
Flexible hours across every room. A good fit for students in early-childhood programs or anyone who wants to know a center before committing to a classroom.
Pay, hours and benefits are discussed plainly in your interview — ask us anything. Ohio background-check and training requirements for child-care staff apply to every role.
How it works
Hiring, without the maze
Reach out
Call (216) 331-5056 or stop by 445 E. 200th St and ask for Deia. Tell us what you have done and what age group you love. That is the application.
Spend time in a room
You will visit during a normal day and see the classrooms with children in them — because you are interviewing us too.
Talk it through
You will sit down with the owner, not a recruiter. Questions get straight answers, and you will leave knowing where you stand.
Come see the room you would teach in
The best way to know if this is your place is the same advice we give parents: walk through the door.
