Lead Infant Teacher – Help Our Littlest Learners Grow!

The Learning Experience – Astoria, NY
Full-Time | Monday–Friday

Love Working with Babies? Come Grow With Us!

The Learning Experience of Astoria is looking for a warm, nurturing, dependable, and enthusiastic Lead Infant Teacher to join our team!

Our infant classroom is about so much more than feeding, diapering, and naps. We believe that learning begins at birth, and our teachers play an important role in helping babies reach developmental milestones through meaningful interactions, sensory exploration, music, movement, and age-appropriate educational activities.

We're looking for someone who genuinely loves working with infants and understands the importance of creating a safe, loving, and engaging environment where our littlest learners can thrive!

What You'll Do

  • Create a warm, safe, and nurturing classroom environment for infants.

  • Implement our age-appropriate infant curriculum, including sensory activities, music, movement, and early learning experiences.

  • Encourage developmental milestones, including tummy time, crawling, early communication, and fine and gross motor development.

  • Maintain consistent feeding, diapering, and nap routines while following safe sleep practices.

  • Observe and document children's developmental progress.

  • Build positive relationships with families through daily communication and updates.

  • Work collaboratively with assistant teachers to maintain an organized, engaging, and welcoming classroom.

  • Follow all health, safety, and childcare licensing regulations.

What We're Looking For

  • Previous experience working with infants in a licensed childcare center.

  • An associate's in early childhood education, or other qualifications that meet NYC requirements for a Lead Infant Teacher.

  • A genuine passion for infant development and early childhood education.

  • Someone who is patient, attentive, energetic, creative, and dependable.

  • Strong communication and classroom management skills.

  • The ability to work as part of a team while confidently leading an infant classroom.

Why Join The Learning Experience?

At The Learning Experience, we believe that happy teachers create happy classrooms! You'll be part of a supportive team that values early childhood education, creativity, collaboration, and the important role teachers play in children's lives.

If you love babies, enjoy creating meaningful learning experiences, and want to make a difference during the most important years of a child's development, we'd love to meet you!
