Certified ECE or ECE Assistant
Earth House is a dream job if one loves working with young children: healthy, grounded families, conscious, attuned educators, and a beautiful home away from home. Our small center is on land tended and inhabited by the director’s family. The other two ECE’s on staff have been with Earth House 11 years and five years, respectively.
Staff work individually with a class of six children for six hours a day. Rain, snow, and shine, classes spend about half the day outdoors in the garden and surrounding forest and the remaining three hours in our cozy indoor space. Curriculum is developed collaboratively by the staff, inspired by the children’s emergent interests and as a mirror of the earth’s processes of growth and rest. Some stories and circles are offered year after year to ground the children. Crafts use natural materials, including wool, beeswax, watercolors, and forest treasures.
The three educators on staff gather monthly for supportive and collaborative meetings and also connect with one another as needed between meetings. Educators work closely with parents and each other when issues or concerns arise. In challenging times, we are supported by our fellow ECE’s, the Enki web, and the online resources of Janet Lansbury and Dr. Becky Kennedy, as well as others.
