WE ARE HIRING: for our Thursday Wild Atelier 9-1 pm
Our Thursday program for children ages 2- 7 intentionally different from a traditional classroom. It is a free-flow, child-led learning environment where carefully prepared invitations and beautiful, thoughtfully curated spaces encourage children to follow their curiosity and engage deeply in their work.
We are looking for the person who can help us bring that environment to life.
The Role
We are seeking a Montessori Atelier & Outdoor Learning Facilitator to lead our Thursday program for children ages 2–7.
This is not a traditional teaching position.
You will be responsible for preparing the environment, curating meaningful invitations to explore, observing children closely, and knowing when to step in—and when to step back.
You are creating the conditions for discovery.
A child may spend an hour building something, become fascinated by a worm in the garden, move from painting to weaving, return to a project from the previous week, or gather around a practical-life activity with a friend.
We don't need someone who needs every child doing the same thing at the same time.
We need someone who can see the learning happening inside the curiosity.
The Thursday WILD Atelier
Each week, you will transform our outdoor learning environment into a place children are drawn toward.
You will curate beautiful, purposeful invitations that may include:
Art, painting, drawing, sculpture & mixed media
Natural materials, loose parts & found objects
Woodworking, building & simple making
Gardening, planting & nature exploration
Practical life & purposeful work
Fiber, weaving, sewing & handwork
Observation, investigation & discovery
Books, storytelling & language invitations
Water, sand, mud & sensory exploration
Nature collections, specimens & treasures from the farm
The goal isn't to fill a table with activities.
The goal is to curate an environment that makes children want to say, "I wonder..."
