Love Working With Infants? Build Their First School Experience With Us.
Sacramento Montessori School is looking for a warm, nurturing, dependable Infant Teacher who understands that caring for babies is about much more than keeping them safe.
It's about building trust.
It's about responding when a baby needs comfort.
It's about talking, singing, reading, and connecting throughout the day.
And it's about creating a calm environment where babies can develop at their own pace.
If you are passionate about infants and want to be part of a supportive Montessori school, we would love to meet you.

Your responsibilities will include:
Providing loving, attentive care throughout the day
Responding appropriately to each infant's individual needs and cues
Supporting feeding, diapering, sleeping, and daily routines
Holding, comforting, talking, singing, and engaging with infants
Supporting infants as they develop movement, coordination, communication, and independence

Experience with infants in a preschool, childcare center, nanny setting, family childcare home, Early Head Start, or similar environment is welcome.
We Believe Infant Care Is Education
Our youngest children deserve intentional, respectful care.
Every diaper change is an opportunity for connection.
Every feeding is an opportunity for communication.
Every movement is an opportunity for development.
Every interaction helps build the foundation for future learning.
Our goal is to create an infant environment where children feel safe, loved, respected, and capable.
If you believe in that kind of care, we want you on our team.
